It's not; the label is just shown to the user.

You could do things so that the manifest package name is used to communicate
with others, but that is really an implementation detail (especially since
you have to specify a concrete component name along with it), and so very
much not recommended.  You would be best of using regular intent filters for
interacting with other applications.
