Drag & Drop or Group similar Labels with leaders

Different from the joist group label and hanger group label in a consecutive row. In chase openings, there are multiple hangers, and even joist/beam products that are identical with labels that cover the entire opening.

At a minimum having the option to group identical labels with multiple leaders helps reduce the clutter and allows the material lines to be shown clearly. This could be a part of the label collision function where if two or more exact same labels are touching, they are grouped out of the way with leaders added.

While full Drag & Drop flexibility would be the most ideal, having the option to hold Ctrl and drag a label through the preset positions would be a vast improvement to the right click menu. Also, give every label the full -center, NE,N,NW,W,SW,S,SE,E- position array to give every possible change to make complex areas visible.
