Bus goes to more than one page

Schematic
1

Perhaps this is just a cosmetic concern – I have done a lot of buses, but this is the first time I have run a bus to more than one sheet, and on the root page I see no way to add a second hierarchical label in a sheet block. Here I have an i2c bus going to two blocks. Can a second bus label be added? Does it even matter if it is blank or I just put text there? Does the bus need to split outside the blocks?

Just make a T-split in the bus itself and route the same bus to all three sheets. A bus can have more then two endpoints. Is this what you mean with:

That works. I kinda wanted a second label, but the split really emphasizes that the bus goes more than one place and makes more sense. Thx.
