Trouble is 'label' is not a defined term in RFC7950 which leaves me (and
others) wondering what is this undefined concept.  I know plenty of
languages that have the concept of a label but YANG is not one of them.

I looked to see what the ABNF says for inspiration but there isn't
any:-)  I think that there should be.

I looked for a worked example for inspiration, nope, none of them
either!   What I mean is that in e.g. A.3  mount point with name root
appears, but that is the only instance of 'root'.  The whole point is
that root should appear more than once, once for where the mount will
be, and then once or more times for the part that will be mounted, so an
example where name appears once is not an example IMHO!
