   Overview

   You would use it like so:

   Localized(user) { implicit lang =>
     val error = Messages("error")
   }

   Messages are stored in messages_XXX.txt files in UTF-8 encoding in resources. The lookup will fallback to default file messages.txt if the string is not found in the language-specific file.

   Messages are formatted with java.text.MessageFormat.
