Comment:

 [attachment:"33030.diff"] addresses only the Comments and Privacy Policy
 "bubbles", I'd appreciate some preliminary testing on it. For better
 clarity, I'll prepare a separate patch for the Updates (Plugins etc.) as
 they're a bit more complicated and overlap with #29022.

 - uses the same string for the "Comments in moderation" (also in the
 dashboard widget, see screenshot below)
 - this simplifies things and allows to dynamically change the strings in
 an easier way
 - introduces an `updateInModerationText` JS simple function, responsible
 to update all the Comments strings
 - makes the bubble and their text slightly bigger
 - improves the active item bubble contrast by using the menu background
 color, pending design feedback

 Testing welcome!

 Note: the visually hidden text is always updated based on the data from
 the Ajax response. Instead, the visible numbers are still updated via the
 old method, based on calculations made on data fetched from the markup.
 The old method calculation fails in some edge cases and should probably be
 reviewed in a separate ticket.
