I suggest that we add an optional description attribute to all the  
elements in the KASP xml. The database already has description fields  
ready to accept this data and it would be useful in any future GUI. It  
should be easy to write a stylesheet to remove this attribute for  
those uses that do not require it.

Jakob - I am altering the kasp.xml at the moment to make it consistent  
with the draft. I can alter the relax-ng as well.
