I really do not like that we are beginning to replace the termini technici of 
LaTeX classes and environments with arbitrary names (or translations, for 
that matter) if there is no special need to do so. There are not only LaTeX 
agnostics using LyX. For people who are familiar with the KOMA script 
documentation, the term "Labeling" is well defined, while "List" is just 
irritating.

To put it different: I think people who are using KOMA-classes in LyX should 
be encouraged to read the excellent KOMA-script documentation (the LyX 
documentation can never replace that). But if the KOMA-script documentation 
recommends to use the environments which can not be found in LyX, because LyX 
has its own terminology, it gets useless.
