cue: Label alias reference destroyed by value.Syntax()

[kajogo777]

What version of CUE are you using?

go library v0.6.0-alpha.1

Does this issue reproduce with the latest stable release?

Yes, the same happens with v0.5.0

What did you do?

#Schema: [ID=string]: id: ID

load instance then run value.Syntax(), doesn't matter if I disable InlineImports
then print the result using

format.Node(node, format.Simplify())

What did you expect to see?

#Schema: [ID=string]: id: ID

What did you see instead?

#Schema: [ID=string]: id: string

I suspect this is mostly about choosing the right cue.Option(s) for the task at hand. Can you share which ones you are already using, or are you calling it without any?

[kajogo777]

I tried different combinations of different cue.Option(s) it doesn't matter, for example I tried cue.All() I even tried enabling and disabling InlineImports as I mentioned above.

It seems many options are broken right now: #2404

Thanks @kajogo777. Leaving as triage to extract a reproducer, and to bisect. This could be related to the recent-ish self-contained changes, or could be a pre-existing bug.
