Comment (by mikeschroder):

 Immediate thoughts--

 Like this idea.

 Top of mind concerns would be:
 - Current use cases for the description field -- as you stated, if it's
 not being output in the admin, what are the current expections/widest uses
 for the field?
 - Is there content not suitable for display that developers are storing in
 them, since there's no expectation of admin output?
