Yes, What i´m doing is this, but this is what i want to avoid. As you see,
you need to "manually" write the label. What if it changes? If it was not a
problem, FormHelper would not implement a solution for this (label).

In my helper implementation i´m already using the formHelper label method
implementation (almost full copy and paste). What i´m arguing is that a
method for retrieving the Label text should be in other place, and the
formHelper::label() method should use it.
