Comment(by DD32):

 > Should we use wp_html_excerpt() here?

 I was thinking Not, since that strips tags. however... If we limit the
 descriptions length.. it doesnt really need HTML tags anyway (And thats
 extra complexity than just a substr())

 Mind you, I dont see a real need to allow html in there now since it can
 be shortened. - A short Text blurb should be enough..
