I don't know if this counts as a bug, but it certainly seems to be a discrepancy:

Gui 1:Add and Gui 1:Show work as normal, but 1Gui<somelabel> doesn't seem to have any effect. Missing out the 1 works if 1 is the default GUI, but what if it isn't? Does that change anything? Or is Gui<somelabel> always the default label for Gui 1?

I also noticed that when a GUI is created as Gui 1, Gui 1:+Label<sometext> doesn't seem to have any effect either - GuiClose still works, but <sometext>GuiClose doesn't ever get called.

Just seems a little strange to me. If Gui 1:Show/Add etc. aren't meant to be used, and are simply the same thing as putting Gui Show/Add etc., why does it work at all? And if it works at all, why not make all of it work, rather than only half of it?

Sorry if this is already a known issue, or if I've made a stupid mistake and all does in fact work as it should - but I did check pretty carefully, and I did do a forum search beforehand.

Hmm, that does seem a little strange, but I've never used GUI 1 - Just GUI and GUI 2-99. This might affect dynamically created GUIs (I think SKAN made one that did a slideshow).

It is documented that the special labels for the first GUI window do not have a numeric prefix. Also, I just tried the following and it seems to work okay:
