I feared so.

Don't know exactly what you mean, but maybe a small workaround for this, 
some kind of optional
callback-function that renders the label-field could be a  fast fix for 
this.
But something like the "eval"-option for rendering labels would be a lot 
more cool, something like
["render" => "lower"] or  ["render" => "date"]

...and maybe a wrap? =)
"wrap" => "[title]::[date]<br />[subtitle]"
(that would be cool...)

but thanks anyway, I will  figure something out.

bye,
Thomas
