Alternative to "Popular Labels" for a single page and it's children?

[Scott Beeson]

I have a "Guides" page. Under it, I have a bunch of guides. Each guide has multiple labels. On the main Guide page (index) I really wanted to use the Popular Labels macro but it lists labels for the entire space. There is no way to filter it by page like with other macros.

Does anyone have any suggestions on a decent way to display a variety of guides, without manually curating it?

I tried other options.

1. Content Report Table

I thought I could just do common topics and use the content report table to show child pages with both the GUIDE tag and the <TOPIC> tag. This doesn't work because the label filter is always OR, so it shows ALL guides and ALL <topic> pages.

2. Children Display

Trying the same idea above, with just a few curated topics. But this doesn't work either. There is no label filter for Children display.

Please

Please Atlassian, update all your macros to match some of the newer and more powerful ones. Why don't the two macros above have the same interface as, say, the Page Properties Report? Just add the "Filter" option so I can filter by ancestor, label, etc.
