I think that the way to handle this is not with a label tag at all but
the <fieldset> and <legend> tags which are a standard way to group
form elements together.
There are some standard styles applied to these elements which should
be overridden by our css-reset.

I have a question about best practices around the 'for' attribute on
a <label> element.
UI Options has a group of checkboxes for how to highlight links.
Each of the checkboxes has its own label, and the 'for' attributes
reference the relevant input fields. However, the collection of
checkboxes also has a label.
Does anyone know how to associate the 'group' <label> with the
collection of checkboxes? I've checked the WCAG guidelines, but
they've not been helpful.
