[Vobject] Custom Labels

Yes, VCARD group labels are supported by vobject.  I've never understood
why this syntax was introduced, since parameters would seem to do the
trick, but you're right, this is what several contact clients expect
(and yes, that syntax is valid VCARD 3.0).

>>> c = vobject.vCard()
>>> foo = c.add('foo')
>>> foo.value = "bar"
>>> foo.group = "grouplabel"
>>> print c.serialize(validate=False)
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
grouplabel.FOO:bar
END:VCARD


Sincerely,
Jeffrey
