So, wouldn't it be better to have more labels ? like ...
gzip, zlib, gzip, LZ4 ... <compressionname>
Oracle, MySQL, Ingres, Informix, IBM DB2 ... <databasename>
OpenBSD, AIX, FreeBSD, Windows, ... <osname>

Not a dozen different labels, as it would be difficult to remember which
ones are available,
but perhaps 3 or 4 would better detail what each of these items represents.
If someone ever wants to have a different style for one of them, it will be
easy to change, right ?

Marcos
