Unfortunately the expert for these questions is not available ATM, so I will do my very best. IIRC a labels document is nothing else than a document containing a lot of frames where all frame content links to the content of the first frame. By changing the first frame and forcing an update of all links the frames get synchronized. The command triggering the synchronizing is available at least through the dispatch API so it can be called on every document that has a view, even a hidden one would suffice. Perhaps you can create a simple labels document, save it and look into the XML file to verify my assumptions. If they are true it should be possible to use the same mechanism for other "coupled" frames in an arbitrary document also.
