Summary: Add ability to access a Label by its text

Initial Comment:
I would like to access a Label by its text.  I know what the text is supposed 
to be, but I don't know what its index, id, or "for" (the index of the object 
the label's for) is.

For example, here's what I have to do now to select an option in a select_list 
when I know the select_list's label, but not its id:

  ie.labels.each do |l|
    if l.text.include?("the label's text")
      ie.select_list(:id, l.for).select("option text")
      break
    end
  end

What I'd like to be able to do is something like this:

  ie.select_list(:id, ie.label(:text, "the label's text").for).select("option 
text")
