    Description

    I use one translate adapter for all my forms, but cannot seem to translate the captcha error messages.

    For example, it's really easy to be able to define

    Zend_Validate_NotEmpty::IS_EMPTY => 'Some localized errormessage'

    but this seems impossible with the current CAPTCHA adapter.

    I'm not sure I understand the problem... Captcha adapters do have message templates, e.g. recaptcha:

    protected $_messageTemplates = array(
    self::MISSING_VALUE => 'Missing captcha fields',
    self::ERR_CAPTCHA   => 'Failed to validate captcha',
    self::BAD_CAPTCHA   => 'Captcha value is wrong: %value%',
);

    vs. NotEmpty

    protected $_messageTemplates = array(
    self::IS_EMPTY => "Value is required and can't be empty",
    self::INVALID  => "Invalid type given, value should be float, string, array, boolean or integer",
);

    So what exactly is missing for you there?
