[containers-users] [poll] use more labels?

Hello,

Some users want functions to have labels when it makes sense (à la
Core), and I kind of like the idea in many cases (especially to label
functions with ~f).

Apparently, a function declared with labels can be called without them
if arguments are in the right order (at the possible price of a
warning). That means that it should be possible to add labels in many
modules *without* breaking compatibility.

What do you think? Are there strong oppositions to this idea?

The next release of containers is approaching (in a few weeks max, I
think), but this can wait if there is no consensus.

Cheers!
