Kafka Connect schemas can have a description; it'd be useful to populate these based on TABLE or COLUMN comments of the source DB, if present.

Research direction

Start by locating the code that builds Kafka Connect schemas and handles source TABLE and COLUMN comments. Trace how schema descriptions are currently populated and check related schema-generation tests. Done means TABLE or COLUMN comments, when present, are propagated as Kafka Connect schema descriptions.
