Take a look at TIB_Connection.FieldEntryTypes. Set the fetDomainName
option true. Now in the Fields* properties you can include lines such
as...

NAME_DOMAIN=Name

in FieldsDisplayLabel. Every field with that domain will receive
"Name" as its label - unless a more specific definition exists for the
field name itself. This is particularly good with FieldsDisplayWidth
and some of the other Fields* properties, since many of these tend to
relate to domains rather than particular fields (whatever they are
named).

Note: This may lead to some additional delays in first time
preparations, but I found these to be quite acceptable for the
convenience of this feature.
