Many of the testers also maintain libraries or at least help in
maintaining them. Hence, they are labelled "developer".

Frankly, the labels are quite useless, anyway. Neither the account
owners nor the admins seem to care much about labels. The roles people
take change over the time, anyway, and quite often people contribute in
more than one role at a time. AFAICS, there are no privileges related to
specific labels (except for the project admins, of course).
