Personally, a 'pkg-options-descr' text file would suit me just fine.
For those on -ports, the context is, "How do we provide more information
about what the various options mean?" This idea seems reasonable to me,
what do others think?
The user needs to know what the options mean when they appear, and
having to go look them up in another file is just another hassle.
Difficult to do in some situations, too. Better to show them when the
user scrolls to that option. Here's what I suggested in -stable:

No new files, only one copy of the descriptions so they don't get out of
sync.
That's a nice idea, how do you make it work with dialog?
No idea, this is still the design phase. :) Actually, a message I now
can't find suggested that dialog may be able to do it unchanged.
