why the docker re-labeling? and missing docker labels

[tcurdt]

Why is all this relabeling needed?

    - job_name: integrations/docker
      docker_sd_configs:
        - host: unix:///var/run/docker.sock
          refresh_interval: 5s
      relabel_configs:
        - action: replace
          replacement: integrations/docker
          source_labels:
            - __meta_docker_container_id
          target_label: job
        - source_labels:
            - __meta_docker_container_name
          regex: '/(.*)'
          target_label: container
        - source_labels:
            - __meta_docker_container_log_stream
          target_label: stream

And I am also still missing the labels from the container.

Which from the docs, sounds like they should be passed through by default.
Is this really correct like this?

Unfortunately, the Grafana Agent team doesn't write that config you shared. It seems like that comes from Grafana Cloud; you should contact support to get more help.

That very support pointed me to ask here :)

I guess the question is why the Grafana agent sends the information in a different format that the cloud expects.
And by that every customer has to use a relabel config.

At least that's how I understand the current situation from the support conversation.
