Reuseable labels, global default set of labels or import/export of labels

Problem to solve

In our company, we are creating many projects through time because we have a lot of customers and projects we are working on with other teams. Currently, we need to manually re-enter all the labels we have defined as our standard. This is a quite hard work and could be improved!

Target audience

Companies that are creating many projects through time or in general if someone wants to import a set of predefined labels.

Further details

It would improve the workflow when working with GitLab.

Proposal

I have noticed there are labels in the admin area, I couldn't find out for what they are exactly for but this labels could be used as the default set of labels for new projects or imported through a button.

An import/export button for labels would help here as well. This would also make sharing easier if someone is asking for a default set of labels.

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

I don't really get this question. The success here would be the general improvement in working with multiple repositories.
