Hi Herbert,

Let me try to encourage you (and perhaps other reluctant people) to get
you an SqP account. This is the only way to be visible to other Squeakers
when they poke around in the SqP information.
That you or somebody else may indeed get an unwanted label is just the way
how life is organized, sh*t happens. Unfortunately there can be no method
in TestCase for checking the label for consistency, or even ethics, etc.
But there is an facility called email and one can send a note to anyone
else who went too far (in the positive or negative direction).
After all, all the people who already are on SqP have *exactly* the same
problem and you are *not* an exception :)
