Hello Djangonauts, I was making a form for a german language site, so any errors that are thrown during the validation of a newform *should* be translated into german. the request.LANGUAGE_CODE is 'de', and it's also working for *some* of the errors, but not for all. To test this, I've put up a

dumpdata from values set by model's __init__
