Sorry, my English is not fluent. Since that time, I have improved a little the 
idea.

Basically, I think you can make several improvements to the data editor view, 
when "label values​​" is active.

Eg.
→ ignore the option column alignment (left-aligned set by default). The column 
alignment option is useful in normal view, because it basically works with 
numbers, however, when there are label values ​​is not useful because columns 
lose legibility (center and right).
→ Addition to the above, the numerical values ​​are aligned to the right 
(string variables are aligned to the left like labels)

These changes would help greatly improve the visualization of the data (tag 
values ​​on). Also prevents image jump when deploying the combox and force to 
the word or phrase on the left (the problem I mentioned at that time).
These changes are based on the Stata data editor. I recommend reading about it 
as it greatly enhances productivity when working with the user interface. (even 
gives a color for each data type: string, label and number)
These changes would improve the functioning of PSPP, without interfering 
negatively with the classic behavior of SPSS:

If you are interested in this idea I can prepare a mockup
