With this approach I had (and still have) a problem with Mail Merge (Your
number 7). I am assuming that you meant the mail merge wizard, which is
unstable, and freezes my 1.6ghz (768meg ram) for at least a minute when
merging only 78 labels! And.. sometimes it recovers afterwards (correctly
filled in fields), most of the times not.

If the author of this module would care about my input I would advise to
display the merged data instantly, wysiwyg, and not just merge the data at
print time. (The wizard does do this, but has other problems.)
This is extremely important for frustration-free design of a sheet of labels
(which should take 2 seconds to begin with.)
Also, the 'synchronize' button is confusing (albeit very nice concept) in
that the user usually thinks that it means to synch data from the database,
when in fact it synchs all labels to the layout design of the first one.

Thanks again.
