Dynamic Reference Text for Labels.

If would be great improvement to allow for Reference Text Labels to be Dynamic or (Auto Update).  I would like to have a General Note Label for "Plat Labeling"  which I would use for labeling Plat and Parcel nmaes that are references to Parcels.   Currently, when adding General Note label that contains reference text, you must place the label, then select the Parcel to references.  I feel this last step of selecting the Parcel should be obsolete as the location of the label should Automatically know what parcel to re be reference to.  

 

Dynamic Reference Text would save alot of time since I can place one label in the drawing then copy the label over you numberous parcels and automatically update the reference to each of the parcels.

I agree with the premise but would say the the option to select the parcel should be there. When labeling a half dozen overlapping easements within one parcel it would be a bit confusing. I some cased I don't even want the label to be within the parcel bounds. But for subdivision plats that would be a great improvement.
