I like the idea of standardizing the transfer of this valuable information. > The proposed format is a simple two column CSV file, with the reference to > a transaction, address, input or output in the first column, and the label > in the second column.

It seems like the format would be more useful if it also included descriptors so that a single file could be used to transfer a wallet. I think such an addition would improve usability for advanced users who might have many such CSVs to manage, and would then be able to more easily select between them. Descriptor,Label pairs could also be useful in the format for the transfer of a wallet with several sub accounts.
