Setting default labels for custom fields

  1. Hi there,
    Sorry - I've been at this for quite some time and not found a good solution!

    When creating a form, with some inbuilt field types, such as "Email" and "Captcha", the label is populated with a default value ("Email" or "Captcha" as oppose to "Untitled").

    When creating a custom field type, how do I set a default label value like this?
    I've tried altering $field['label'] on gform_field_content and gform_field_input hooks, but it looks to be too late by then. So short of completely rewriting $content on the gform_field_content hook, what can I do?

    Any help much appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Kane
