The scoped labels paper has an interesting feature in this regard: labels with different names can be swapped at will, but labels having the same name (which is allowed) maintain their order. - Cale
Yes, I know. The problem is that there are TOO MANY proposals, and they are all fundamentally incompatible. The scoped labels idea is interesting, but is it useful? No-one has written enough code with ANY of the proposals to say what their strengths and weaknesses are.
