If you don't have some visible object to label then
use the label of the existing visible thing you have.

E.g., if the only visible distinction is the use of
different faces then use the face names.

Users can at least use `C-u C-x =' to see what those are,
if the names are not clear.  (But if the names are not
clear then maybe a renaming is in order.)
