What I'm trying to do is to get points and text fields from the database and display them on the map at the associated spatial points. I like the text to be subsequently editable, so that if I decide a label needs to be moved slightly it can be.
[...] Has anyone got any ideas about achieving the same result but keeping the base map in vector format.

if the vector format is EPS or PDF, there are various tools
that might help, the most obvious being any scriptable
layout app -- load the base map at 100% into the background,
and create text items at the appropriate locations in the
foreground
