Is that in your future plans?
Yes, we are waiting for that information to be supplied by the originating sites to the open standard package feed. PreCentral expects that to be done this coming week.

See Application talk:Preware - WebOS Internals for more details about the future plans.

In general, we focus on getting the underlying functionality of installing advanced homebrew applications correct before implementing the niceties of how to display the information that allows you to make a decision about which application you should install. But descriptions and other information like that will be in before the 1.0.0 release.
