Please be so kind and also mention ufsid "labels"
(unique file system id) in that article.

Why?

	"Any partitions with ufsid labels can be mounted
	 in this way, eliminating the need to create permanent
	 labels for them manually, while still enjoying the
	 benefits of device-name independent mounting."

... even though they are "not normal words" in a typical
reader's mind. :-)

They can be found explained in The FreeBSD Handbook at 20.7.1:
