Please add a Description Field to Alias', Triggers and any other places you feel it'd be useful.

Being able to iterate through Alias' and if in a group, display their description woild be easier if there was a description.

Sample Code:

local AliasList = GetAliasList()
local AliasGroup
local AliasDescription
local FoundAlias=false

if AliasList then
for AliasKey, AliasValue in ipairs (AliasList) do
AliasGroup = GetAliasInfo(AliasValue,16) -- get the group
if AliasGroup=="core_speedwalk" then

AliasDescription = GetAliasInfo(AliasValue,1) -- really i want a description field

Note(" "..AliasDescription)
end -- if core_speedwalk
end -- for
end -- if we have any aliases

You could use descriptive labels, though I guess it's kind of difficult to get really descriptive with the syntax restriction placed on labels.
