I know. But here an example:
1. Insert one disk
2. Create geli and glabel there
3. Pull out that disk and insert it again in random order with hundred of
other disks
4. Try to find where geli is located
So I can say again - glabel inside geli doesn't make any sense in any
situation. But geli inside glabel makes sense almost always.
