I can't comment on whether it should or not, but a little
experimentation showed that the label object's parent is actually a
Gtk2::Alignment widget (but apparently not until the window has been
rendered).

I added these lines after the $window->show_all in your script:

  my $parent = $label->get_parent;
  print "label: $label  parent: $parent\n";
  $parent->set(0.5, 0.5, 1, 1);

and that resulted in a centered heading.
