Description

Premise: It does not make sense to show label editing UI in cases where labels are automatically generated. After all, when someone uses the editing UI, their edit will just be overridden by generated value.

	"buildLabel": {
		"en": {
			"P2": "$"
		},
		"de": {
			"P2": "$"
		}
	},

Question: in case of the above rule applying to the entity, which labels do we prevent editing for? Just the English and German ones? Or all labels?

Further question: does it typically even make sense for people to be able to add labels in other languages in the types of wikis where rules are used to generate labels? Perhaps it is typically better to restrict label editing to the language or languages the dataset is officially maintained in.

Done means documenting and implementing an agreed product rule with corresponding coverage.
