Show Column Description on Column Hover in Table Cards

As a way of shortcutting a data dictionary card - it would be very useful if you could hover over a column title and have the column description show as hover text. Or even have the ability to add custom hover text to each column via the card editor here.

    I agree, this would greatly extend the value & functionality of the Schema Description fields.

    This will help us a lot too. Currently, we keep a documentation of the cards we built, but I don't think people read them because they will be directed to a new page to see the dictionary and there's a lot in there. Too much friction just to understand one field. Having the ability to simply hover over a header of the table and see the definition of that field in there is the most convenient solution for them. I hope this gets noticed and will be available soon. 😊

    This is a great idea and can help ensure that all cards contain the proper documentation as long as the definitions are added to the dataset.
