Of course. Those are different formats for different locations of the  
quota notifications. An occurrence of a quota message will only change  
if you change the related setting in the configuration.

You cannot arbitrarily add new values to those strings. These are just  
sprintf formatting strings, i.e. you can change how the *existing*  
values are displayed.
