 Strings should be written in numbered argument conversion specifications
 from so that they can be translated into other languages like Chinese
 without sounding weird.

 For example, we've got this string here
 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-admin/user-new.php#L75

 {{{
 $message = __("Hi,\n\nYou have been invited to join '%s' at\n%s with the
 role of %s.\nPlease click the following link to confirm the
 invite:\n%s\n");
 }}}

 The placeholders are all unnumbered, so I am unable to rearrange the
 arguments to make them sound better. Chinese translation requires
 get_option('blogname') to be the first, $_REQUEST[ 'role' ] as the second,
 then site_url(), and site_url("/newbloguser/$newuser_key/") as the last,
 which cannot be fulfilled with the current string.
