Yes, you have three choices:

1. Provide a translation for English to change it globally.

2. Subclass the original widget and change the ``_messageNoValue`` attribute. 
You can either register this new widget or set it as the custom widget.

3. After the widgets are created/instantiated in the form, set 
``_messageNoValue``.
