It's a pity than the other filesystems have no way for the user to name
partitions meaningfully to him for their use.
That they do not should not stop you using the volume labels of ext2 and
ext3 volumes, and await the addition of a similar facility to the other
filesystems, While orinally a DOS artifact, it is so essential for
knowing where you are that I am sure it will be added over time.
It eventually probably should be set up to become an alias to the
physically-useful but application-dumb Linux partition names like hdh95
<g>, etc...
