[hobbit] Feature request: DESCR popup

[Stewart]

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.
