Description

Seems to affect all versions.

FormComponentLabel nor it's subclass SimpleFormComponentLabel open the tag like Label does.

While writing <label wicket:id="xyz"/> is invalid XHTML I'd argue this should be supported as Label will expand tags as well.

FormComponentLabel asserts that the tags name is "label", so that's the reasoning behind implementing it there (in the patch attached).

Patch is trivial and identical for both 1.4 and 1.5 branches.
