   By definition, csv means a comma separated values file. I don't think it is wise to add in another delimiter. 
   
   If my understanding of the load is correct, all of the information needed to create a graph component (vertex or edge) is contained within the single line for that component. This precludes having it in the header.
   
   If I understand what you are suggesting, what would happen if there were many labels in that csv file?
   
   ```
   commentid:comment3,personid:person
   1236950581249,10995116284808
   1236950581250,4139
   2061584302085,4139
   commentid:comment2,personid:person
   2061584302086,4139
   2061584302087,4139
   commentid:comment2,personid:person2
   2061584302088,10995116284808
   2061584302089,32985348838375
   commentid:comment1,personid:person3
   2061584302090,10995116284808
   2061584302091,6597069777240
   ```
   
   This would make creating and parsing that file a real problem, without any real benefit.
