We should add an AttributeDisplayDescriptionFunction to the consent function

Description

This occurred as I was doing the DiplayName Function.

An advanced user might want to use it to display hover text about the attribute.

This will be cut and paste from the DisplayName, indeed it might be best to refactor the DisplayName code to take a further boolean parameter "NameOrDescription", or some such.

The trick might be to get the hover text right but we could leave that to the user

Pending other conversations (see note I just forwarded), I think it would be, which is where we're headed quickly anyway.

As far as properties, I consider that API, but we need to clarify that.

Code is done I have not wired this up into the flow because I am unsure of the impact on our release.

The release policy is remarkably quiet on the subject of deployers rather than developers such that it appears that we could completely change both idp.properties and the velocity properties in a patch release. Lets just not go there,

Nothwithstanding that, this feels like new function and the document says that new function is a minor rev. So is this the increment to 3.2?

Do you want to do this, Rod ? If so, feel free to self-assign and roll.
