Assuming that the label property being used is listed at
http://buzzword.org.uk/2009/label-properties, then it works without any
inferencing. If the label property being used is a rdfs:subPropertyOf or
owl:equivalentProperty of one of the listed properties, then, yes,
inferencing is needed of course. But frankly, anybody using a labelling
property that's not listed there deserves everything they get!
