However looking at a number of tabular but not exactly repeating forms,
both on the Web and on paper, I notice that it common for the column
headers to essentially serve as label for the input fields. For example
Homework 1 Homework 2 Homework 3
John Smith 87 86 98
Jane Jones 100 78 98
Fred Wilde 89 65 69
What strikes me about examples like this is that the labels for the
input fields naturally apply to more than one input field. For example,
in the above each label covers three fields. I wonder if there's a
common use case to say something like
<label for="A1 A2 A3">Homework 1</label>
<label for="B1 B2 B3">Homework 2</label>
<label for="C1 C2 C3">Homework 3</label>
Currently this is not possible. The label's for attribute can only point
to one input element.
The code:
<label for="A1 A2 A3">Homework 1</label>
Would not really be correct, not even for a human. For example, "Homework
1" is not the label of A1, or at least it's not the complete label. The
real label for A1 is "John Smith" AND "Homework 1".
The use case is not really common, in my opinion.
