/**
* Interface for Objects that have a label, whose label is an Object.
* There are only two methods: Object label() and Collection labels().
* If there is only one label, labels() will return a collection of one label.
* If there are multiple labels, label() will return the primary label,
* or a consistent arbitrary label if there is not primary label.
*
* @author Sepandar Kamvar ([email protected])
*
* Updated to take a specific type rather than just a blanket Object. I'm hoping
* that it's true that the Collection will be of the same type as the primary label...
