Summary: Consider whether {{PLURAL:}} should handle fractional
numbers

This comment in the code (for Russian) indicates, that fractional numbers are
not really supported by Language::convertPlural() method:
http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/languages/classes/LanguageRu.php?revision=70131&view=markup#l79
Russian, Polish and other slavic languages (and probably many more) use a
different form for franctional numbers.
This document:
http://unicode.org/repos/cldr-tmp/trunk/diff/supplemental/language_plural_rules.html#ru
does not seem to address this.
The only case where we *might* needed is to display amount of the funds donated
to the Wikimedia Foundation:
http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/CentralNotice/SpecialBannerLoader.php?revision=83744&view=markup#l126
(not sure if having fractions of millions there is a good idea, if it is not -
please WONTFIX this bug).
