add a description/notes text box on the installer per action

a small notes/description text box when editing the installer would be really handy to have per action. I may have an installer with several actions and I may want to put some important information regarding each action. a simple notes/description text box would do the trick.

Thank you, yes we get a lot of requests for this.  Unfortunately it didn't quite make it in time for the upcoming 1.5 but will definitely be in 1.6.

In the interim (until a larger description field is added) don't forget the Action Title field. You can place a brief description in there to help identify the action being performed.

@Shane

that feature has one flaw. The "action x" text is still present. I think that it should be overriden by the entered text completely.

In the next beta you will see that only the action number will be shown. We still wanted to show where, in the sequence, the installer was. Now you will see "# text" instead of "Action # text"

That is a good compromise and its been my unsaid proposition. I just wanted to know what will you come up with.
