Editing the Insert new component dialog.

I'm trying to find a decent way to add descriptions to the component list. I can see you can categorise your components but it would be great to describe the component for the editor before they select one, especially with a site with many components to choose from.

Has anyone found an in-built way of doing this?

Screenshot of desired result attached.

It's not support as of now but description does appear in component finder

Here is the file which has the code base, you can try to use it

/libs/cq/gui/components/authoring/editors/clientlibs/core/js/edit/ToolbarActions/edit.ToolbarActions.INSERT.js

I suppose you can override the new COmponent dialog. However - i am nto aware of any examples, articles or tutorials that discuss this.
