Certainly that would be really really nice, and the rest of this
shouldn't indicate I wouldn't like that. :)

However, until there is merge history kept in the repository, it might
actually be the case that people would want to move the label forward
to the last revision merged from their branch, so if they do more work
on their branch they know the base from which to merge...
