Description
The explanation of the [registered braille codes](https://daisy.github.io/ebraille/registries/codes/#registered-codes) is currently limited to one short string, derived from the "index-name" metadata of the corresponding Liblouis translation tables. For example:
- braille code: `NABCC no-grade comp8`
- index-name metadata of corresponding Liblouis table: "English, U.S., computer, NABCC"
(Note that the purpose of the index-name metadata is to be used within a table selection form, e.g. a dropdown list. The strings are brief and make for a clear list when sorted alphabetically.)
It would be good if we could use a more descriptive string, and possibly add more metadata. For example:
>
- NABCC no-grade comp8
- North American Braille Computer Code
- Locale:
>- en-US
>
>
> - 8-dot system
- Authority: ICEB
- Related codes:
>- CBC 6dot no-grade comp6 (English 6-dot computer braille as used in the U.S.)
- CBC 8dot no-grade comp8 (English 8-dot computer braille as used in the U.S.)
- CBC no-grade comp8 (English computer braille as used in Canada)
- SEB no-grade comp8 (English computer braille as used in the U.K.)
