Ideally it would be very helpful & more productive to have the ability to see 'Description' for any item in the 'List View'.
Technically this can be done by adding a 'new long text' field as well, however that would mean we are duplicating the text/content, as the Description for the task/item is already written in the Description Column.
So please, consider the feature of displayed 'Description' field info in a Column under list-view.
