if we consider it more broadly as "something that alternate between 2
values" you can simply always set the label, and it may or may not be
used by style. For instance, toogle would use, check would not.
Someone could use it to just represent the 2 states and click toggles
it (maybe a slide or fade effect?).

just provide a series of canned label styles. it would even avoid
confusion like "should it expand" or "should it fit text", these would
be just different styles one could select.

alternatively, lots of label cases are plain old boring
evas_object_text_add(). They don't expand, they don't shrink, they
just stay there.


note: yeah, going with styles we must provide a way to help developers
choose a style, like in editje list available styles in the theme +
overlay (and that mean we'd need overlay support in editje :-P)
