The documentation on http://code.google.com/closure/templates/docs/translation.html#insert...
says the flag --should_generate_goog_msg_defs will do that, but the
latest version of SoyToJsSrcCompiler does not support such flag.

Thanks.

Update

It seems the option was removed, perhaps by accident?

I checked it out and here's the diff to put it back in, compiled and it
works fine so far.
Check option usage message, I think it needs a tweak.
