I can leverage sys_ui_message table to translate static stylized text and static rich text fields in ui builder.

Can I use the same functionality to translate dynamic binding and/or scripted text inputs?

 

Also, is there a way to bypass the 255 character limit of sys_ui_message key value?

write a little data broker to query all your translated text by a server script. Call this before you display the message.

Why you want to do this? It's only the key, not the text. Create records with same key in all languages (also English).
Often the key is used as the original English text. But that's not a good practice.

I will always try to give a meaningful and valid answer.
