I'd certainly be interested in being able to associate a description with 
an attachment!  (In fact, I've considered starting on a recipe for this 
but as I haven't had time to finish my modified attachlist, it has had to 
wait).

I am using PmWiki for work and this is where I really need to be able to 
associate the descriptions. A very important reason for having 
descriptions is that it would make it easier to find a specific file.

Is there PITS for this yet?
