    One option would be to create a custom ReportExplorerForm that enables the
    user to enter descriptions and display them.

    - the default ReportExplorerForm is defined in ppExpFrm.pas, you can copy
    it, modify it and register it as the default form.

    - you can add a field to the rbItem table to support the description
