Import field description from file or database

[Ashish]

An option to import field descriptions would be really handy if I could import filed descriptions while working with datasets where filed (thousands) names are type of codes and there is a spearate alias table with filed descriptions.

To complete this idea :
-ability to get the description at input as an option

-ability to send the description at output as an option

Shoulw work with :
-database
-files (such as excel or Tableau datasource, of course, not csv ^^)
if the data system accepts it.

It works with .yddb so I guess this is not that hard to do that with the other systems.

Dynamic Rename can be used to add field descriptions

This feature will be a valuable to team sharing dataflows. This will save manual effort and help someone pick up an existing dataflow.
