Don't. Log to a file instead. There are plenty of third-party tools
that can examine logfiles and take appropriate configurable actions
based on their contents. If the app needs to report a user error then
this is normal interaction and is separate from logging.

You mean not to localize log messages or those on the GUI? Didn't
become clear to me. As I wrote, I tend not to localize the log
messages, but those seen on the GUI.
