You only should use as_ in requests (views, helpers or methods of 
controlller), all translation methods as I18n.translate from rails i18n or 
_() from gettext should be used only in requests. So you mustn't use as_ when 
you are defining a class, as when you configure active_scaffold.

Reading rails i18n guide I don't think so. rails i18n use symbols for 
translation (instead of use english strings like gettext) and you must define 
the string for all languages.
