--- Comment #3 from Heiko Tietze <tietze.heiko at gmail.com> ---
Adolfo is right, colons are necessary. Esp. the ally thing is a relevant
aspect.

Gnome HIG: 
"If the label precedes the control it is labelling, end the label with a
colon."
(https://developer.gnome.org/hig-book/unstable/design-text-labels.html.en)

MSDN:
"Use after labels for drop-down, list, text, and spin boxes; sliders; and text
areas. Place a colon after labels for check boxes or option buttons only if
they precede another control. Use a colon to introduce a list of items."
(https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb226801(v=vs.85).aspx)

"Use colons at the end of external control labels. This is particularly
important for accessibility because some assistive technologies look for colons
to identify control labels."
(https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dn742478(v=vs.85).aspx)

macOS:
"Use a colon when introducing a control. A colon implies a direct connection
between the label text and a particular control or set of controls. A colon
becomes unnecessary when the label and control work together to form a single
sentence." (Example without colon: "Enter text here [      ]")
