Label tool w/ custom label

Hello
I was testing the label tool using one of the custom labels,
specifically the "Label Wall" label, supplied in the AC library
and discovered that it doesn't work as I expected.
I assumed it was supposed to display the thickness and fills
of a wall that it is associated with. It doesn't.
Instead it displays the thickness and fills of the
settings of the wall tool as they are set at the moment.
If you go to the wall tool and change the settings, then
select the label that has been placed open its settings and click OK,
it will now show the new settings of the wall tool.
Is this the way this object is supposed to work ?
If so, what possible use could it have ?
Thank you,
Peter Devlin

And ... please oh please let us create SCHEDULES from LABELS... Ugh... this seems so obvious as a way to inject little package specification to objects without having to rescript them all...

So, for example, a label could display the ID of objects and within the LABEL scripts reference a database of Short Note, Long Note and Specification. If we could create a schedule that looked at the LABELs, we could generate the reference notes for that sheet. This could include items that you can't edit scripts for as well. Like a WALL LABEL that generated a reference note...

Long time wish for me.
Me too. . .
