Zend_Form does not use Zend_Filter_Input, as it uses a separate
validator chain per element (ZFI operates on sets of elements), so the
mechanisms are different.
Currently, you *can* pull your validator object and set the messages:
$notEmpty = $element->getValidator('NotEmpty');
$notEmpty->setMessages($messages);
Additionally, if you are using Zend_Translate and pass a
Zend_Translate_Adapter into your form or element, the Errors decorator
will use the error codes as message keys for translation.

This won't work currently, but I've marked it in my TODO as an an
improvement. It will work by passing a 'messages' key to the validator
options, with a value of an associative array of code/message pairs.
