Sorry, I wasn't really clear about what I was thinking of here.   I'll use the 
Microsoft example in [1].  So when MyProject (and all the files/directories 
below it) get committed, it'll have some kind of revision property associated 
with it with the contents:

Label:Version1
Comment:blah blah blah

When MyFile gets promoted we reset the revision property on *all* the 
files/directories we labeled last time:

Label:Version1
Comment:blah blah blah
Promoted:MyFile on <date> <time>

or something like that.
