This is an interesting concept. Currently I can not test it because I have your abstract-symbols branch of gschem not installed. I think a plain solution is to use value attribute instead of plain text for not fully static symbol labels, i.e. value=7404 value=78xx for Hex Inverter or Voltage Regulator. I have seen this in symbols of Kai-Martin, while nearly all symbols shipped with gEDA use plain, unflexible text labels like "7404" which can not be moved around or changed to "74HCT04".
