First of all i admit that proposed change can affect the gameplay indirectly but still it is proposed as the quality of life improvement as the additional information i want to see in a popup is available for everyone.

Imagine the following:
1. I have a pilot in a chat and i've added him to corp/ally contacts with TERRIBLE standing and CYNO ALT custom label
2. I mouse over the "minus" icon in front of the pilot name in a (local) chat and i see: "Player has terrible standing" popup message with no mention on why it has terrible standing
3. I must open ally contacts, search fot the pilot name and check its label (meeeh...)

So i propose the following:
1. Add a second line in the mentioned kind of popup and display the custom label that has been (if any) assigned to that contact.
For example: "Label: CYNO ALT". That way i can quickly check the minus pilot in a local.
2. Optional. If i see contact standing icon in a chat and mouse over it then display all personal, corporate and ally contact info for that pilot each on different new lines. The situations when standings are in conflict are quite usual in constantly changing (in the matter of standings) FW space.

I know that such a simple proposal can demand significant changes to the code but still hope it is possible if contact labels caching is implemented properly ;) I'm sorry if this was already proposed (haven't found similar proposals) but i miss this improvement very often nowdays in a boiling FW space.

Cheerz!

This is more of a "quality of your life" thing and I say nope.

Use the notes section of the character's bio, not the label when you add the contact. Just right click his name in local and you see your label. No need to search through contacts.

Thanks for your responce.

1. Notes are personal, don't they? I think of an alliance wide improvement.
2. I'd set the notes and i can see them only by right click -> show info -> notes . Quite a bunch of actions too. Or am i missing smth?

I prefer detailed replies to see what am i possibly miss in my proposal. You mean it is more than QoL ? This info is available and i can get in 5-10 seconds but i need to execute many actions to do so instead of simple display improvement. See, i've already marked that person as i wanted, i've done it, now i just want to check the mark. There is just no easy display of the label that is already set and should be available for viewing.
