What's that 2nd interface required for? Wouldn't it suffice to do all lookups via the first interface and demand in the spec, that the default implementation of that interface returns values based on the  ValidationMessages bundle?

What are the advanced use cases you have in mind?

Sounds reasonable to me. We should expose the default implementation of the interface during bootstrap so that custom implementations can also delegate to it.
