Hmm... I wasn't even aware that you could /use/ label! But sure enough,
it works here, too:

btrfs fi show rt0238gcnx+35l0
Label: 'rt0238gcnx+35l0' uuid: 8f8d79ef-a86f-4306-a255-e0519e0f6132
Total devices 2 FS bytes used 1.94GiB
devid 1 size 8.00GiB used 3.78GiB path /dev/sda5
devid 2 size 8.00GiB used 3.78GiB path /dev/sdb5

btrfs-progs v4.0.1

It works for UUID as well...

btrfs fi show 8f8d79ef-a86f-4306-a255-e0519e0f6132
Label: 'rt0238gcnx+35l0' uuid: 8f8d79ef-a86f-4306-a255-e0519e0f6132
Total devices 2 FS bytes used 1.94GiB
devid 1 size 8.00GiB used 3.78GiB path /dev/sda5
devid 2 size 8.00GiB used 3.78GiB path /dev/sdb5

btrfs-progs v4.0.1

... but that's a lot of arbitrary typing.

Doesn't work with partlabel or id (see /dev/disk/by-*), however. =:^(

Anyway, thanks! Learned something new about btrfs fi show, today! =:^)
