The other really, really nasty one to look out for is apply the CSS
float property to <label> (again, fixed on the trunk but not for
Moz1.0.1/NS7), which makes the label vanish into thin air (which was
one of my favorite tricks until Mozilla decided to arse things up
considerably).

The easiest way to fix these label problems is to just do something
along the lines of:

<span class="label"><label for="whatever">Text</label></span>
