   Personally I think its *very* apropriate.   Doing away with scores of   
   unwanted, one-off text labels.   
      
   Similiar to the special "jump {x}unnamed labels forward/backward"   
   pseudo-labels.   Which where a godsend when the relative jumps still only   
   had a range of +/- 128 bytes.  You know, conditional jumps over a long(er)   
   jump, or even for short loops.   
      
   So yes, our mileages seem to vary. :-)
