Just in case anybody wonders: The correct plural-form syntax in my  
case is: _n:1,2
I didn't find it in the docs before because I thought it wasn't  
possible to do in PoEdit.
Thanks, Vaclav!
And yes _n() is a non-standard short hand for
function _n($msgid1,$msgid2,$n) {
	return sprintf(ngettext($msgid1,$msgid2,$n),$n); // saves the $n), 
$n) redundancy
}
