Thank you Gilles for the information and for the breath-taking speed of development of this
bug! ;)

I would be interested in the label management view, i.e. where you control the color label
descriptions.

Do you have plans to implement the color labels into the icon view as well (item sort order
and item separation)? This was also requested in one of the previeous messages.
