	be any string including the null string (in this case, no
	label appears). This label will be used if no other
	operation label collection method worked (up to the
	point where this field is introduced). Make this the first
	entry in action string to be sure this label is used;
	otherwise another label may be used and this one
	ignored.

	The appearance of this this parameter depends on the
	action string.
