The Relabel Button plug-in for Sketch.app prompts for a button's new label then applies the text, resizes the button background and repositions any other interior elements while maintaining the existing padding.
- Select any group or symbol that contains a text layer and one or more other layers (dividers, icons, drop-arrows, etc)
- Press Cmd+J and enter the new text for the button (or Cmd+Ctrl+J for right aligned resize)
That's it! The text and other objects will be updated maintaining the button's original padding and relative layout.

Many thanks to Alexander Kudymov, who wrote the Dynamic Button plugin which I modified.
Also thanks to @fuggfuggfugg, who graciously shared useful code for manipulating symbols.
