14 years ago Observation An explicit bounding box is:
- essential for compartments (no SBGN rules at all for where such label should be placed)
- probably a good idea for nodes with a lot of decorations (but less essential than for compartments)
- not very useful for simple nodes (but doesn't hurt much either)
First solution: (1) bounding box for labels are:
- mandatory for compartments
- optional but recommended for decorated nodes
- optional but permitted for simple nodes?
Alternative solution: (2) always use a bounding box for all labels?

Sarah: Labels should have an explicit bounding box, not an implicit bounding box (= inferred from the bounding box of the surrounding node)
