Referring back to the analogy with how the label of a group works, the label is an integral part of the group, no need to create a separate field for it, it moves with the group during design, etc. It's lacking in positioning and separate text formatting but it's the same concept as is being suggested. You're right though, maybe the new widget designer will provide an opportunity to develop something like this.
