Bug Description

1) Start creating an UbuntuOne account.
2) Enter a wrong email and a random password.
3) Submit the form.

Expected outcome: an error message is shown in the device current language.
Actual outcome: "Provided email/password is not correct" is shown, regardless of the user's language.

Attaching a screenshot.

As far as I understand, this error string is not defined in the code of ubuntuone-credentials, but it's coming straight from the login.ubuntu.com server. Therefore, adding a task to ubuntu-ux to define the text to be shown.

That the text is incorrectly untranslated doesn’t mean the original text needs changing. But if you’re changing it anyway, I suggest: “That address or password isn’t correct. Please try again.”.

Even in the case the bug gets fixed on the server, we'll still need the client side to inform the server on the locale being used. Re-adding ubuntuone-credentials to the bug, since it has to be changed in any case.
