Am I correct that you had to make the translation entries manually (because the
T() search doesn't look in gluon)?
I assume that the current logic was written with the intention of passing in
error_message=T(something); does that work too?
I wonder whether there isn't a general solution that would let us use T() in
gluon code that's invoked by applications.
