A reminder:

The 'desc' attribute for strings in our GRD files is used by the
translators as a guide to help them translate your string - you should
pretend that this attribute and the original string is all they have
to go on, and that they have no other context. If your string needs to
be small to fit in some UI, or is a contraction of something else
please note it here. This also helps other engineers when they are
finding, reviewing and editing your strings.

Less good:
<message name="IDS_NEW_TAB_RECENTLY_CLOSED"
                  desc="The 'Recently Closed' heading on the new tab page">
  Recently closed
</message>

More gooderer:
<message name="IDS_NEW_TAB_RECENTLY_CLOSED"
                  desc="A short heading for the new tab page sidebar
section that contains a list of the user's recently closed tabs.">
  Recently closed
</message>

xox,
