This is not correct. You have three choices:

1. The following examples assumes the title attribute is already translated:

_("$title: %s" %self.title,
   mapping={'title': II18n(self.context).queryAttribute('title')})

2. Translate in the Python code. Use the i18n.translate() method to translate 
inside the Python code.

3. Use ZPT to concetanate the strings:

<div>
  <span tal:replace="view/titleAttr" />:
  <span tal:replace="view/_title" />
</div>

If this is true (title with an _), then this is a bug.
