Not long ago we had some problems with Python scripting where many names of proxies and properties were significantly different from their label.  This cause confusion, especially when transitioning between the GUI, Python scripting, and C++ code.
I thought we informally agreed that all labels should be basically the same as the name with explicit spacing unless there was a good reason to do otherwise.  We even talked about enforcing this in the XML parsing.  However, I am still seeing new proxies and properties being added that break this rule.  (I most recently noticed the AMRDualClip/Contour proxies.)

pvserver/pvws/tws consolidation

Label vs. Name in SMXML

Not long ago we had some problems with Python scripting where many names of proxies and properties were significantly different from their label. This cause confusion, especially when transitioning between the GUI, Python scripting, and C++ code.

I thought we informally agreed that all labels should be basically the same as the name with explicit spacing unless there was a good reason to do otherwise. We even talked about enforcing this in the XML parsing. However, I am still seeing new proxies and properties being added that break this rule. (I most recently noticed the AMRDualClip/Contour proxies.)
