 Looks mostly good. I am a bit confused why we need the
 `FormatMaybeLocalizedString()` version with `const nsTArray<nsString>&
 aParamArray`. As far as I can see none of the changed code is using that
 one. The patch is already large, thus, could you trim it accordingly if I
 am not being wrong here?
