Provide a 'Description' textbox for Display Settings.

Dear Devs. Currently, we have a few options for Displays; Display Name, Keywords, Display Owner and 'Share With'. I'd like to propose an additional setting in the form of a large text field for 'Description' say, 500 or 1000 characters. This would allow Display authors to include meta-data for their displays. Things like a description of what the purpose of the display. Who the intended author is. Who the Business owner of the display should be etc etc. Just a place where authors can add extra detail that may be required. Right now I have to do this in an external data store to keep records of why a display is published. This information is required to keep the site manageable with the future in mind. The added benefit of this is the field could be optionally searched on providing users of the system additional flexibility in locating the displays they want/need to view. Cheers.
