 Hello,

 I've been testing the new d.legend.vect and it is great :)

 However, I found that it would be even better if one could change the
 label displayed. Not always the name of the vector map is the best option,
 especially if one is displaying for example only one category of an
 attribute. For instance, I have presence/absence points and only want to
 display presence points. I'd like to be able to tweak the label to be
 "presence" instead of the name of the vector map.

 Also, sometimes one has boundaries of countries or coastlines that should
 go on the map but doesn't need to have a label in the legend.  If one
 disables the display of the map, it disappears from the legend, that's
 fine. But it would be great to be able to choose which items should have
 label and which shouldn't (but still be displayed).

 Thanks a lot!
