Comment:

 The last diff didn't apply cleanly to trunk for me, but
 [[attachment:39222.3.diff]] should apply cleanly now.  I added @aduth 's
 suggested change to {{{dateI18n}}} naming and applied a few other
 formatting changes like declaring {{{var}}}s on the first line in
 closures, and not over-writing argument variables ( not sure if this is a
 standard, but one we followed in the Media Widgets ).

 I also discovered a bug in {{{format()}}} logic where
 {{{wp.date.formatMap}}} methods were being called with the date argument -
 which could be a string, instead of the {{{momentDate}}} instance.  And
 some qunit test coverage has been added.
