Comment:

 `comments_popup_link()` has significant i18n issues, see #13651.

 Instead of introducing a get_*() version with the same issues, could we
 introduce a new function, more i18n-friendly (accepting proper plural
 forms instead of a pseudo-plural `'% Comments'` string), and with a more
 relevant name?
