Validate plugin global messages
Validate plugin has set of messages that can be overwritten on element level. I do not see it useful because too much of coding is evolved. Is it possible to overwrite them all at once or force it to use some message bundle available on server trough the AJAX ?
This is how messages are defined in script. Author already tried to provide internationalization for German language. This is not an uncommon task. It would be nice if plug in can select set of national messages by some key. I do a lot of manual work to perform this task. It would be nice if it is handled by plug inv.
