When I first saw this on linux my gut reaction was "ewwww, different." But now that I've worked with it a bit, I really like it. Doing this by default in 9.0 would be a really useful step forward, and would allow greater innovation down the road.

Is there a handy tutorial somewhere for making this change in FreeBSD? Or is it even possible to do in a rational way?

Not sure I understand the question. I have a little article called FreeBSD Labeled Filesystems: http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/labels.html

It uses filesystem labels instead of device labels (except for swap). The differences are the utility used to create the labels and where the labels show up in /dev.
