[hobbit] Feature request: DESCR popup

[Galen Johnson]

I actually like the idea of the popup versus appending it (like it does now)...it saves valuable real estate that is better used to show your monitors.

Our installation does that as well (4.2.0) but we made no modifications
in that regard.  Maybe the COMMENT functionality was adjusted recently,
or your patch was incorporated?

We actually made a patch against the code to show the COMMENT tag with 
the host name.

So, if your config line looks like
192.168.1.99    wormhole.localdomain.com #  fgtses COMMENT:"Firewall"

You get
wormhole.localdomain.com (Firewall)

on your web pages.

I can see about generating a patch against 4.2.1, but we have some other

features we added as well.
