+### Richer labels for radios & checkboxes
+
+The `label` of radio and checkbox inputs is normally plain text, however both input types support an `htmlLabel` property as an alternative to `label`, which allows for HTML tags within the option label.  The `htmlLabel` is rendered within a `<span></span>` inside the `<label>` element for the option, so it should be limited to presentational tags such as `<em>`, `<b>`, `<tt>`, or custom CSS directives via `<span style='...'>` or `<div style='...'>`.  In particular a `<div style='margin-bottom: 1.5em'>` is a convenient way to break up a long list of radio buttons (with `"orientation": "vertical"`) into logical sections.
