The label is said to represent a 'caption' in a user interface. There is
however there is no explanation of what “caption” means in this context. Is
it the same as a 'caption' for a data table, or is it similar to the figcaption
etc? I suggest linking to the section of the spec that describes what a caption
is, and what it is for as well as its content model etc.
