Description
The docs currently state the below, for the `noCustomTypeDesc` param.
```
public static System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter GetConverter (object component, bool noCustomTypeDesc);
noCustomTypeDesc
Boolean
true to consider custom type description information; otherwise, false.
```
This is a confusing double negative, but sounds like the invest to what's expected? If I'm setting `noCustomTypeDesc` to true, then I would expect custom type description information NOT to be considered?
