> I think that to help facilitate self documentation, we should add either a `description` field or a `metadata` field at the Task level so we can add an arbitrary blob of information to describe it.  
> On the UI side, we could put the description in the the alt text, a mouseover popup, in the onclick overlay popup, or in a link inside of that similar to the optional 'subdag' link.
