It's not that hard to get something less generic displayed but the 
question is what and in what detail. A lot of this stuff is not 
consistent over viewers and it being part of the user interface might 
also change over time (some viewers also interpret the page stream for 
urls).

Anyway, a next upload will have this:

% \disabledirectives[backends.references.descriptions]           % just link
% \enabledirectives [backends.references.descriptions]           % some 
detail (some todo) (default)
% \enabledirectives [backends.references.descriptions=reference] % a bit 
less

so that you can experiment a bit with it. We might at some point provide 
optional descriptions per link but the quesiton is how to cleanly 
interface this (easier if you use \define... instead of your own macros 
for urls).
