[Qgis-user] Obtaining coordinates of polygon labeling points?

QGIS has an excellent feature under the layer/labeling menu advanced
tab to turn on/off labeling every part of multi-part features, e.g.
polygons.   This labeling of every part appears to be the only option
available through labeling via properties.  (Version 1.7.2), but for
the world and country maps I am using, a single label per polygon is
much better.

My question: Is it possible to capture the calculated single label
labeling position and export this in some fashion.   I would like to
be able to store this as a geometry column in Postgres.

Thanks.
