Because I haven't yet heard complains about this from people?

Dunno. There are two possibilities here:

a) Client uses "Important" and "Personal" keywords -> no problem here.

b) Client 1 uses $Label1 keyword to mean "Important", while client 2
uses $Label1 to mean "Personal". I know TB used to use $Label* keywords.
I don't know if it still does. I don't know if any other client maps
them to conflicting names.
