It's enought to support that, but could easily add some more to a white-list. Also alias to it as a "required" predicate to be used in Java if anyone wants to integrate with UI better from Java land. Also keep in mind backwards compatibility (always :) ). Instead of changing the API straight away we'd have to go through a deprecation cycle where the old signatures are still supported. That's one more reason why stick to the existing non-labeled predicates.
