I have a feeling that this is really a question for the JAX-RS experts. CXF does use a message catalog system for its own messages, and you are welcome to use it, too, but I don't see how that will help you get polite messages into your HTML.
With a protocol like REST, it seems to me that you either need to map from fault conditions to user-presentable messages in Javascript in the client, or you need to avoid the protocol's concept of an error -- always 'succeed', but return an error indication and whatever sort of user-presentable message that you need along with success. However, caveat, the JAX-RS experts may well arrive and explain that this is a JAX-RS core capability and I'm confused.
