Description

For uploading, there are .xsd files which not only define the typedness of various attributes, but they also contain a textual description of the attribute. We should preserver this documentation and include it in the final REST API documentation.

Check how typed attributes are transferred, then preserve each XSD textual description in the resulting documentation; done means those descriptions appear alongside the corresponding attributes.
