    _______________________________________________________

Details:

In the latest Javascript specification, the language has gained interpolated
strings:

    `${greeting}, ${planet.toUpperCase()}!`

They are delineated with backticks, and behave much like interpolated strings
in other various languages.

Many widely used Javascript implementations either already support these
strings, or are commonly used with preprocessors that perform the required
code transformation for implementations without the feature.

It would be nice if xgettext understood these strings.
