getLanguageValue equivalent for field labels

[bmacnaughton]

I would like to be able to fetch the labels for fields in a language different than the current logged in user.

For field values that's easy 

// p is page, l is language, and f is field
$p->getLanguageValue($l, $f);

I'm looking for something like

$fields->getLanguageValue('en', 'length');

The only solution I know of is to save the current user language, iterate through the languages by setting the user language and fetching the value, and then restore the user language.

Thank you for the precise and concise answer!

It works quite nicely - even defaulting when a language doesn't have a value filled in.
