Idea: label rewriter

[tenpn]

Override the default label (maybe every drawer should provide this?):

[CustomLabel("Distance (m)", "Distance in meters to target")]
public float m_distance;

Maybe a secondary option that just adds a tooltip?

[CustomTooltip("Distance in meters to target")]
public float m_distance;

for this we need a generic default property renderer, as calling EditorGUI.PropertyField() results in a stack overflow (!). Could make it available to all.

I have implemented a CustomLaber property drawer recently using this helper function:

void DrawDefaultProperty(Rect position, SerializedProperty property, GUIContent label,bool includeChildren = true)  {

        //Horrible hack because just doing EditorGUI.PropertyField crashes
        Dictionary<string, PropertyDrawer> s_dictionary =
        typeof(PropertyDrawer).GetField("s_PropertyDrawers", BindingFlags.Static | BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.NonPublic).GetValue(null) as Dictionary<string, PropertyDrawer>;

        foreach (var entry in s_dictionary) {
            if (entry.Value == this)  {
                s_dictionary[entry.Key] = null;
                EditorGUI.PropertyField(position, property, label, true);
                s_dictionary[entry.Key] = this;
                return;

            }

        }

        EditorGUI.PropertyField(position, property, label, true);

Based on a workaround I found online. I would submit a patch but this is a really hideous thing.
