OK, I have a concern about that, and IMHO an issue.

First the issue:

Using (int type, int number) like in llGetInventoryName() forces an duplicate 
search.
I'll post the full explanation on mantis.

Second, my concern:

Description is a user-modifiable field. Actually, lot of scripters (including 
me) use it to pass additional values to scripts. So, this function is a really 
interesting workaround, but would not be 100% reliable to get landmark 
destination. (though I admit there is less chances to change desc of a landmark 
than other objects)
