I left a message on the their Village Pump to see if there is any concern. I like qLabel approach, and I would go even a step forward to suggest linking the CSV headers to Wikidata properties. That way we could also verify later on the data formatting, or importing it more easily into Wikidata if needed. Overall this is very exciting work with lots of potential future > applications.
