the job object to the description on the job object in a given job stream

When defining a job object, we type a description in Workload Designer.

See attached RFE01.PNG

When using the job object in a job stream, the description field on the job is blank again.
Of cource we can just type the descprition again, identical hopefuly.

But it would be very nice, if TWS by default transferred the description from the job object to the description on the job object in a given job stream, if the description on the job in the given stream is left blank.
In our installation, it's more than rare the we which to have different descriptions on the job object in different job streams.
