:# No, Label needs to be run before Goto in a give run-through of a script for the Goto to work. Also, this would be a generally bad idea, from the perspective of good coding practices. See [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_To_Statement_Considered_Harmful ''Go To Statement Considered Harmful] for the most famous criticism of label/goto — the only reason we have it at all, I suspect, is because While was not available originally. Note that it ''is'' viable, and the linked page will discuss how some programmers disagree, nonetheless goto is considered a major potential problem in any code it is used in.

:# I have absolutely no idea, but for the same reasons that Goto is ''usually'' bad, that use strikes me as ''awful''. That would make your code an ''absolute nightmare'' to read/follow. | :# I have absolutely no idea, but for the same reasons that Goto is ''usually'' bad, that use strikes me as ''awful''.
