Message name in messaging table comes out of database (message_attributes.message_name) and is not translatable in .po or staff interface.

I solved this by translating the .sql files (http://lists.koha-community.org/pipermail/koha-patches/2010-May/011998.html).

The database field message_attributs.message_name is only varchar(20). 

I think this field should be longer to make it easier to fit translations in. The field is also shown to patrons in the OPAC and it should be possible to put an easily understandable description in it.
