Comment (by TomH):

 The problem here is that we don't control the whole chain as part of the
 work is being done by rails - the substituted text "X hours", "Y days",
 "just now" etc comes from a rails method that generates a "friendly"
 description of the date.

 So without recreating all the work that rails does to select the various
 different forms of date, and then using a different string in our
 translations for each one, it's not clear what we can actually do here.
