If it's looking for a UUID and finds it on /dev/sda3, that's the one it'll use, even if the same UUID is on /dev/sdb1 .  I think.  IIRC, the label detection code in mount did that the last time I looked at it.

(OK, -U feedface-dead-beef-0000-123456789abc works, but is silly.)  Distros probably go the UUID route because it's generally easy to assume that UUIDs are unique, while filesystem labels may not be.
