And the label is mainly intended (and needed) for providing information to the user. And even if one could use it for other purposes it would still be only a single additional property.
One could of course use an associative array for storing extra information. But the advantage of storing them as user-defined atom properties would be to be able to make use of the advanced atom selection capabilities of Jmol also for these properties.
