Because TLabel is not a descendant of TWinControl, it does not have its own
window and can’t receive direct input from the keyboard. To add an object to
a form that can respond to keyboard input (other than setting focus to
another object when an accelerator key is typed) in addition to displaying
text, use TStaticText.
