When I created a VI recently, I noticed that a control's label in the
context help did not match the control's label.  I had copied the control
from another VI and didn't realize that it had a caption set different than
the label (only the label was visible).  When I wired the VI as a SubVI,
the terminal showed a different description than the label.  After a few
moments of confusion, I realized that it was using the caption.

Shouldn't a control's label be used as the connector label or am I crazy? I
guess there is still new things to learn about LabVIEW even after using it
for 11 years.
