<textarea> doesn't have activation behavior.  So if I have:

   <label><textarea></textarea></label>

and I click the textarea, then the <label> will be activated unless we 
add some sort of special-case for this.

<a> has activation behavior (if it has an href and so forth).  So the 
situation is totally different.
