One problem is that there are now two sets of field properties to 
address somehow.

However, 80% of my needs are for personal or throw-away or experimental 
code, and I wouldn't mind some default values for the name display 
"properties".  Even a default relative location would be fine for 
those.  And even just the name would be great, but following the label 
property of the field would be good, too.

How about with what we have?  Groups?  If not, some way to make a label 
follow the name and location of the field?

How about help from the IDE?

Or maybe there is already some shortcut that I'm missing.
