Beginner localization question

Hi,

How can I have Wicket resolve a key to some localized messages with my 
own code at runtime? The reason I ask is because I have this use case:

1) I use Java enumerations to strongly-type a RadioChoice control:
public enum RadioOptions { ONE, TWO, THREE }

2) I strongly-type a RadioChoice control:
     public SomePage() {
         ...
         RadioOptions radio = RadioOptions.ONE;
         RadioChoice<RadioOptions> r = new RadioChoice<RadioOptions>(...,
                 Arrays.asList(RadioOptions.values()));
         ...

3) Define localized messages in the MyWicketApplication_xx.xml file:
<entry key="ONE">First option text</entry>

4) Overload toString() as follows:
public enum RadioOptions {
     ONE, TWO, THREE;
     public String toString() {
         String key = this.name(); // "ONE", "TWO" or "THREE"
         return .................; // how do I ask Wicket to search for 
the localized message?
     }
}

if you have a component/page you can use component.getstring() if not
you can get the localizer from application and use that, afaik
application.get().getresourcesettings().getlocalizer()
