Hi Darwyn,
Looks good to me. I think we need a more general specification for ""labels" and "stamps". These are text or images that appear in the graph at specified position.
I use them to implement the open and filled circles in piecewise graphs, and also as labels of points "a", "b". They can also be used to plot discrete data. It would be nice if the text could include math symbols such as \alpha.
One "label" you refer to might be called a "legend" or "caption" or "title" for the entire graph. There are also labels for axes, but not in general.
