This could be done fairly easily with the console (only in SVN right
now, but I could package it in the gems as well). Something like:

  $ sh devel/console.sh
  [Tue Oct 30 14:47:24 -0700 2007] loading index...
  [Tue Oct 30 14:47:24 -0700 2007] loaded index of 64258 messages
  >> Index.ferret.search_each("label:sup") do |id, score|
       m = Index.build_message id
       m.labels -= [:sup]
       m.labels += [:potato]
       Index.sync_message m
     end
  >> Index.ferret.optimize
