Hello,

Attached is a patch which populates the album Label field with label data available in the already fetched Music Brainz release data object. I hate looking up labels. Would love to see this make it in before 6.x.2.0 final release.

I've not looked through this code in a long time, there are several things commented out that hint that this was intended, especially the commented out call to _station_catalog_musicbrainz_label().

Yeah, not sure whether _station_catalog_musicbrainz_label() is really needed by most users. It looks like a separate label-specific query provides much more detailed info on the label, including history, subsidiary status, etc.

If we don't think anyone needs/wants this, perhaps _station_catalog_musicbrainz_label() should be dropped.

Reviewing the MusicBrainz documentation about the sheer volume of information that the call would produce... I think that much label data would probably be overkill for most people.
