      Consider a multi-config job that is run on multiple nodes. Each node is a
      different OS with different hardware. The nodes have hostnames which are not
      descriptive. It should be possible to see more detail about each node being
      used in a multi-config job on the job page, so that one does not have to look at
      the nodes page to find the description.

      Currently the node information is presented in this form:

      Configurations
      (blue dot) BB06 (blue dot) BB04 (blue dot) BB03 (blue dot) BB01

      It would be better if the node's description was also visible, perhaps like this:

      Configurations
      (blue dot) BB06
      Windows XP 32

      (blue dot) BB04
      Centos 5.0 64

      ...

      In the config page for the multi-configuration Job and look at the configuration
      matrix, the individual nodes list looks like this:
      _ Individial Nodes
      / BB01 (RHEL 4u4 x64)
      / BB02 (RHEL 4u4 x86)
      / ...

      The stuff in the brackets comes from the node description field, and that's
      exactly what should be on the job page.
