Thanks for your input, Russ.
I haven't used i18n much but I've taken over a CI project that uses
keys rather than full sentences.
I guess the benefit I was looking at is maintenance of the
dictionaries, but I'll bear your advice in mind.

But is this an acceptable/symfony way to do it?
Symfony won't tell you off if you do, it's up to you. There are pros
and cons really...
The biggest con is that you have no fallback translation, so you may
find someone looking at some language with homepage.welcomemessage
instead of the default which you would probably have written in
English. This means you also have to create an English trenslation,
which you wouldn't have to do if your base strings were English in the
first place. Another potential downside is with reusability. Depending
on your implementation you may have loginform.submitbutton and
registrationform.submitbutton which will take up two spaces in your
translation file whereas otherwise they both would have been covered
by __(Submit). This has a customisation advantage (which you could
also use catalogues for), but a reusability disadvantage, so it's
really down to your architecture.
Just weigh it up and do what fits best for your needs - it's not a
best practice issue in my opinion, just a design decision.
Russ.

You can simply user:
_('mainPage.linkToLogin' )
in your code.
But if you want to be more explicit about non translated strings (warn
users about non translated strings), why can't use prefix/suffix as we
can see in docs:

Hi,
Is it possible to use technical names such as 'loginForm.sendButton' or
'mainPage.linkToLogin' instead of the actual text for the default culture
in any view template and have it translated through I18n based upon the
culture?
Kind regards,
Daniel
