This is pretty screwy. I think the Label field can be dropped, but before filing a bug I figured I'd see if I'm missing something.

It'd probably be better to post this on the anaconda list; the only way
we could authoritatively answer your question here would be to go ask
the anaconda devs and relay the answer to you. :) I wouldn't be

quite a lot at different times and we may have forgotten to ensure the
'big picture' of what field means what remained consistent.
