long u_ldata; /* for application */
char *label; /* window title */

}
FL_FORM;
The label is the closes there is to a "name" of the form. You could
also use the u_cdata field to hang a "name" onto.

Why? What possible advantage could there be to consolidating
callbacks into one in this case. You either have a large number of
callbacks or you have giant, ugly, switch statments.
You're just creating a large amount of extra work for yourself. I've
experimented with the single callback _modus operandi_ and it's
frankly just not worth the trouble.
