Description

Over the years, folks have found the --label option to grep(1) useful when working in a pipeline as it allows you to set the output file name when interfacing with stdin. It'd be nice if we had support for this as well.

I tested this with the updated grep test suite, test run below. I also verified ggrep had the same behavior with --label.
