I tried using partscatalog to make labels, it can be done, but it is
still all a bit manual for my liking. I think it would be good to
think of a way to link up with a Peeron set/parts list, and build
labels based upon those.

I am not sure I have a full solution, but there are probably a few
ideas that could work to make it less of a slog to make storage
labels.
