In http://geda.seul.org/wiki/geda:scg, referring to the "device=" attribute:

> This attribute should not be used as a label. Use a separate text object for 
>the label.

What is the reasoning behind this?  This is pointless redundancy.
And it makes using "light" symbols harder, because you need different
symbols for different device= attributes, or else there is no
schematic-visible way to differentiate between them.

Also, I notice that the power supply symbols have a separate text
label and hidden net= label with a ":1" appended.  In fact, it is
necesary to append a :1 to the end of any net= attribute.  This is
ugly.  And it makes the redundant text label necessary to avoid adding
the information-free ":1" onto the schematic.

Would anyone be opposed to having the netlister assume a :1 for net=
attributes without a colon?
