Yes. IMO, nearly any list of general labels won't
be very helpful. It might suffice to say at the
outset that you can do lots of things with Emacs -
it is a text editor and more. IOW, the old "kitchen
sink".
It's by examples (even descriptions of examples)
that we can convey the breadth of "what you can do"
with Emacs. A list of labels won't help anyone
much, IMO.
