Almost. The default labeling function is labeling_border which does take a
varnames argument but this should be logical (should labels be drawn or
not?). The argument set_varnames can be used to set the varnames to
different strings, e.g.,
mosaic(~ Gender + Admit, data = UCBAdmissions,
labeling_args = list(set_varnames = list(Gender = "Foo", Admit = "Bar")))
I hope this is what you're looking for.
