Display package description in main list

[rtpg]

This is just a feature suggestion, but I would like to venture into implementing it if people don't find it unreasonable.

[This list] of packages is kind of bare, so if you're looking for a specific kind of package (say, find packages about databases), it's hard to just browse through the packages. Plus there might be interesting goodies missing.

It would be neat to display the first line or two of each package's README on this page, so people can browse "casually".

Do you think this is covered by #147?

~~edit: and #220?~~ I am being silly today.

I do believe that #220 covers my request :)

In #147 you mentioned that bower has the description field, which looks to be like the right kind of field to expose.

A cursory look at a couple random packages listed on Pursuit shows that most packages have proper, small descriptions in their bower packages. Exposing that on the general list view would be good.
