Laravel - highlighting the confirmation field for an error - validation

Question

I can't find a way to get Laravel to highlight the correct field when a _confirmation field is incorrect.
Using a Bootstrap layout I've got an email and email_confirmation field in my form like this:
<div class="control-group {{$errors->has('email') ? 'error' : ''}}">
{{ Form::label('email', 'Email', array('class' => 'control-label'))}}
<div class="controls">
{{ Form::email('email', Input::old('email'));}}
{{ $errors->first('email', Form::block_help(':message')) }}
</div>
</div>
<div class="control-group {{$errors->has('email_confirmation') ? 'error' : ''}}">
{{ Form::label('email_confirmation', 'Confirm Email', array('class' => 'control-label'))}}
<div class="controls">
{{ Form::email('email_confirmation', Input::old('email_confirmation'));}}
{{ $errors->first('email_confirmation', Form::block_help(':message')) }}
</div>
</div>
So if the user puts in an invalid email address then the 'email' field will have an error attached to it and the correct label/field will be highlighted.
But if the user has entered a valid/correct email address in the first field but gets the confirmation wrong - the error returned is still for the 'email' field, not the email_confirmed field.
To me it looks weird when the email field is highlighted when the error is actually with the email_confirmation field.
As far as I can understand from this stackoverflow question, I could probably do something like
{{$errors->first('email', ':message') == 'Please confirm your email address correctly.' ? 'error' : ''}}
This will work, but the problem is that I'm running a multi-lingual site so the :message that gets returned is going to be one of many possibilities.
I guess I could write a function to compare the :message against an array of messages for each language but I thought I'd check if there was an easier way to go about it.
Cheers!

This is how I show an inline error if the title field is empty:
<div class="form-group #if ($errors->has('title')) has-error #endif">
{{ Form::label('title', 'Title') }}
{{ Form::text('title', null, array('class' => 'form-control')) }}
#if ($errors->has('title')) <p class="help-block">{{ $errors->first('title') }}</p> #endif
</div>
And my validation rule:
public static $rules = array(
'title' => 'required',
);
Using Laravel 4 and Bootstrap 3.

Or you could just print all the Error messages somewhere
$messages = $validator->messages();
echo '<ul>';
foreach ($messages->all() as $message)
{
echo '<li>'.$message.'</li>';
}
echo '</ul>';
