Below is a demo of this new feature.
------------
 btrfs fi label -t /btrfs/sv1 "Prod-DB"

 btrfs fi label -t /btrfs/sv1
Prod-DB

 btrfs su snap /btrfs/sv1 /btrfs/snap1-sv1
Create a snapshot of '/btrfs/sv1' in '/btrfs/snap1-sv1'
 btrfs fi label -t /btrfs/snap1-sv1

 btrfs fi label -t /btrfs/snap1-sv1 "Prod-DB-sand-box-testing"

 btrfs fi label -t /btrfs/snap1-sv1
Prod-DB-sand-box-testing

Why is this better than:

# btrfs su snap /btrfs/Prod-DB /btrfs/Prod-DB-sand-box-testing
# mv /btrfs/Prod-DB-sand-box-testing /btrfs/Prod-DB-production-test
# ls /btrfs/
Prod-DB  Prod-DB-production-test
