Description

Would be great to not have manually re-label all change addresses after sending transaction. It's important to have some separate addresses you don't want to cross, and gets super annoying when we use privacy change (not 1 change address but more). Ideally should just set the label of the input address. If multiple inputs with different labels are used, concatenate them.

Research direction

No file or test entry point is named. Start by locating the transaction change-address labeling flow and trace how input labels are available when privacy change creates multiple addresses. Done means change addresses inherit one input label, or a defined concatenation of multiple input labels, without manual relabeling.
