[jira] [Commented] (AIRFLOW-1585) Documentation (e.g. doc_md) for tasks should be displayed more prominently

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-1585?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16715493#comment-16715493 ] 

James Meickle commented on AIRFLOW-1585:
----------------------------------------

+1 on this, I'd love a short snippet to appear on hover or when you click on a task instance.

> We have a web of complex tasks. I love that when I set `dag_md` on an entire DAG it is visible very prominently on the Graph View. However, the same cannot be said of `dag_md` set on individual tasks (until now I've never even had a use for the `Task Details` tab, even there it's not very prominently presented).
> My wishlist of where it would be displayed:
>  - In the mouseover (although if there's a long description, perhaps that would be too much for here)
>  - In the popup that you see when you click on a task (My favourite)
>  - At the top of *all* the tabs for that task, displayed in a prominent break-out fashion (as with the DAG), as opposed to buried in the 'attributes' section
