It's been message style policy for quite some time to not quote the
output of format_type. I think this is because format_type sometimes
puts quotes into its output, and it'd look weird.

That'd only be useful if they all share a common message catalog, which
does not seem like a good design direction to me. How would a non-core
PL hope to get localized if it can't have its own catalog?
