Thank you for the implementation, Hans!

 A small issue: When omitting the referencetext, then the shown text is now
something like "248>desc:referencetext".

MWE:
\definedescription[desc]
\starttext
\startdesc[title=Long title, reference=foo]%, referencetext=Short title]
  \input jojomayer
\stopdesc
\about[foo]
\stoptext

For backward compatibility, it might be better to use the title as a
default for the reference test.

Cheers,
Christoph
