That’s exactly how it was at first, until someone pointed out that the <item/> 
element only allowed a single child. I agree that this is a much nicer and 
simpler way to attach the label to the payload assuming that xep-0060 can be 
updated to allow for this (i.e the semantics for the <item/> element - the 
first element is the payload, subsequent elements are metadata).
