In this case the only solution I can see is DETAIL: Valid values are: "value1", "value2", "value3". Where list '"value1", "value2", "value3"' is built in runtime but have no any bindnings to any specific language. And the rest of the message is 'DETAIL: Valid values are: %s' which can be properly translated. -- Do code for fun.
