Comment:

 [attachment:"43037.2.diff"] updates the strings to the new ones:

 {{{
 Unknown username. Check again or try your email address.
 Unknown email address. Check again or try your username.
 }}}

 Keeps all the other ones unchanged: some of them still use the all caps
 'ERROR'. Ideally, 'ERROR' should be removed from anywhere but I guess not
 at this point of the release cycle (Beta 3).
