Just a little more info

What is the Description field for when creating a login? Well, it just so happens that often it is hard to remember which specific org a particular username is associated, especially as the number of sandboxes per production org increases. The Description is then used as a tooltip on the Login button. When the mouse hovers over the Login button, the Description text is displayed after a short delay.
