The issue is not with the patch itself -- I have full confidence in Wolf's
coding. Rather it is how the approach taken fits in with the rest of the
labeling system. 

In the past I thought that the approach was not right, but have been holding my tongue until I could articulate the issue clearly and propose
a better solution. ... which requires time digging in and understanding
the code of four modules.

I have some ideas; I'll try and expand on that after work today, in the
mean time please don't anyone "just apply" the patch in SVN, as there's
a good reason I haven't already done that.


again apologies to Wolf for taking so long on this, I promised him I'd
look at this ages ago.
