[html-formfu] Issue with a text label

Often CSS isn't enough for complicated layouts.  For example take a look 
at this $work form:

https://fxtrade.oanda.ca/your_account/fxtrade/register/individual/beforeyoubegin

That's a FormFu form, but with pretty extensive use of the 'filename' 
parameter to handle all the complicated layout (and it gets more 
complicated on the pages after the first one)

Are other people leveraging this stuff?
