Hi Enrico,

This sounds like a useful feature. Do you expect to use it internally in
pulsar or should it be limited to external applications?

In thinking about authorization, what level of permission should be
required to create/update/delete these labels? It seems to me that these
should require some kind of admin permission.

Thanks,
Michael
