Sounds like a combinational explosion to me. I imagine syslinux has some upper bound on the number of supported labels. Don't see the benefit.
When leaving a conference, being asked 'hey, how can i install kde/gnome desktop by default?' i would be able to answer 'type installdesktop or installdesktopkde and press enter'. This is way more user friendly than 'install tasksel/first=gnome-desktop' that a human won't be able to remember if said that way i wrote above.
