   Warning: The stuff below will only work if whatever is in type.name has matching string mappings in your .po files.
   
   For instance, if columnTypes is an array in your controller, annotate the strings:
   http://angular-gettext.rocketeer.be/dev-guide/annotate-js/

-->
<select ng-model="column.type" ng-options="type.id as translate(type.name) for type in columnTypes"></select>

You'll also need to expose translate on the scope:

$rootScope.translate = function(str) {
  return gettextCatalog.getString(str);
};
