--- Comment #3 from Eike Rathke <erack at redhat.com> ---
Until we use a message framework that fully supports plurals in all languages
and forms (there are languages that distinguish even between 1, 2, 3 or more)
we'll have to use one form that covers all. The only thing we could do is to
use the string "Y row(s), X column(s) selected" and hope that it translates
well to other languages. I could bet there will be at least one language where
that wouldn't fit either. And it eats 4 more characters on the precious space
of the status bar..
