I don't understand your point. That is exactly what I expect to see. TypeOf
returns "object" for every possible instance of every possible class.
So, instance of Label is object and TypeOf will return so as expected.

The problem is that Me["Label1"] does not return an object, which is an
instance of class label, but instance of class control.
That is unexpected. Looks like a bug to me.
