That's a very interesting idea.  I can see many uses for it,
especially if you can query the values via RTTI.

BTW:  Is that something similar to what VB6 (I think) does.  I
remember from many years back that when you selected a property to
edit, in the bottom of the Object Inspector (whatever it was called in
VB) it showed a description of that property. As far as I remember
that description was part of the class definition - Delphi never
supported something like that.
