UserVoice request - Set Data Classification while creating a group
I'd be cautious giving this advice just yet. If an organization has implemented a naming policy, it is not being enforced at any service endpoint but Outlook endpoints. Once AAD Naming policy is rolled out, sure, it doesn't matter.
However, point is still valid that creation forms should be consistent across endpoints to create groups.
True, this would be an issue in a self-service environment.
It isn't for us since I've locked down groups creation for now.

These data classification labels on sites should also do more than just add labels to things as well. As a specific example, these should tie back into Azure Information Protection and what protections it is putting in place on those sites and all the content contained within. Labels are great and bring some awareness to users, but automating some actual protection would go much further.
My thinking (and hope) is in the future, data classifications will be used to apply different policies for each classifications separately, such as deletion and retention, and as a part of Azure Information Protection. If this wasn't the plan, well may be it should be! it would be cool to have this!
thats the plan ;) we're still in the preperation phase of moving files to Office 365
