Allow a quick description for each step ( for History-based design paradign )

To make the history-based design even more useful, you could allow the users to write a simple description for that step. When the user hover the mouse over each step, you see the name of the feature and the name of the model ( quick question: is the name of the model important for each step ?). It should be nice to see a quick description for that step. This description can be used to provide the purpose or anything else for that step. This could make even easier to understand the model as anyone reconstructing the model step-by-step can read what was the intention or purpose of that step. As Fusion is moving towards a collaborative design environment, such capability could be much welcome to the team members.

I would find this really helpful. In complicated designs, especially after some time has passed since the design was done, it can be hard to remember why exactly the designer did *that* *then*. Also would help in familiarizing somebody who wasn't part of the original design work.

In a collaborative environment, this would be like comments in code.

interesting idea. We have talked about being able to rename items in the timeline based on another idea in here. This feels like a nice extension. It would be great to hear from others if/how they would use this.
