The jQuery Validation plugin contains localization for many languages (https://github.com/jquery-validation/jquery-validation/tree/master/src/localization). Would you consider loading those (based on the locale) in MetaBox?

Hi,

When creating the validation message for the field, you can use the function gettext to make the message translatable. For example:
```
'validation' => [
    'rules'  => [
        'field_id' => [
            'required'  => true,
        ],
    ],
    'messages' => [
        'field_id' => [
            'required'  => __( 'Password is required', 'your-text-domain' )
        ],
    ],
],
```
Refer to the documentation https://codex.wordpress.org/I18n_for_WordPress_Developers

Hi, thanks for your reply. I know I can do it this way, but that means that for every field I have to define the validation, even for fields that have default validations like required, email or number. By loading the localization files this is not necessary.
