No, we don't need an <Hx> element, but we *DO* need to > associate form inputs with clearly defined, "understandable" labeling, even I don't believe that label was intended for use with submit buttons. In fact the decription in the HTML specification says it is for controls without a naturally associated label. I don't believe the WAI guidelines are asking for any more than to write reasonably self documenting forms and then use label to associate text with things like input type=text, which wouldn't otherwise have an associated label. I think the guidelines don't go beyond saying to use label as the HTML designers intended it to be used.
