There was something to address this before the class editor overhaul,
there was a tooltip field.
It's never been used in our default distrib, may be we should get it
back and improve it.

Hi Caleb,

The problem:
When a new wiki administrator uses the
registration application, they are faced with a set of fields with
names which are too short to explain what each field is for.
Then maybe the right solution is to add a description. The fact that
class properties don't have a description but only a name and a pretty
name looks like a serious limitation to me. What would take to add a
description field to a class property?
Hope this helps,
Marius
eg:
Boolean field named: "Check Active fields for user authentication"
To a new administrator, this is confusing and it's not apparent where to look for an
explanation.
Proposal:
I would like to add fields with names which are links to descriptions of what those
fields are for.
I can implement this in the "configurable" class which I am working on.
This means XE would have links to xwiki.org but it already does on the dashboard
explanation of tags.
WDYT?
Caleb
