Also gives a way better hint of what zone can be clicked. It becomes
obvious that the zone is big, even before you pick the mouse. So
easier to hit and thus faster interaction with the program.

Some toolkits accept clicking the label, others only the small
square. The box-only mode is slowest while the box-and-label mode is
as fast as the full-button case... if you ever learn you can do that.
Too many people will never ever try clicking the label, and will
always aim at the tiny square.

Good job.
