Column description set in WDC is ignored by Tableau
Checked this in Tableau 10.2,10.4&10.5 so this is a longstanding problem.
I checked that column description existed in TableSchema in the getSchema function immediately prior to the SchemaCallback returning it to Tableau.
I also used the Simulator and can see the Column description there.
Tableau also has no problem handling Table description.
I've come up against this problem with Tableau 2018.1.6 too.
@maxrandolph Please also check the other attributes for columns as I don't think all of them work.
