Default label types not recognized as "common" labels when auto-detecting labels during import

USE CASE: WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?

Import a file with reasonably auto-detected labels.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE AN ISSUE (OR TRIGGER A NEW FEATURE)

Choose a file for which no Preferences exist (previous import details), but which has a default label type preceding numeric data such as weights. Example file
Without a Preferences node for the file, the import dialog will open. It will automatically run the detection procedure for labels.

CURRENT BEHAVIOR

Using the example file, observe that the default "COLUMN LABELS 2" label type is not recognized and data is considered to start a row above the actual start, because numeric data (weights) are encountered.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

All default labels such as ROW LABELS X or COLUMN LABELS X where X is a number, are recognized as "common" labels by the label detection routines.
