It isn'T supported, yet. You could help getting it into the plugin by
trying to implement it yourself, and contributing it back.
To get started, take a look at the defaultMessage-method. Currently it
looks for custom messages specified via options, then for the title
attribute, then for default messages. You can access metadata via
$(element).metadata().
To be able to throw rules and messages together, you'd use the
meta-option to "namespace" rules, eg.
class="{rules:{required:true,email:true}, messages: {required:"yo",
email:"no"}", then $(...).validate({ meta: "rules" })
Hope this helps to get started.
