> It's not a great practice but we often see folks overloading "label" and "id"
> as property keys on elements. The problem here is that `valueMap()` will tend
> to end up looking like this:
> {code}
> gremlin> g.V().has('label').valueMap(true)
> ==>[id:13,label:[thing],label:person]
> {code}
> There was an idea to alter the {{toString()}} representation of {{T}} values
> but that didn't seem right after it was done and it's hard to say what
> implications that would have to users. Who knows how {{T}} was used at this
> point.
> [~dkuppitz] suggested that this issue was akin to
> {{EdgeLabelVerificationStrategy}} which is a much less intrusive way to deal
> with the problem, especially going back to 3.3.x. For 3.5.0 we could even
> install this strategy by default as we expected to do with
> {{EdgeLabelVerificationStrategy}}
