+================================================
+Feature: #85410 - Allow TCA description property
+================================================
+
+See :issue:`85410`
+
+Description
+===========
+
+The new `TCA` property `description` on column field level has been introduced.
+The value data type is a localized string, similar and on the same level as `label`.
+
+The property can be used to display an additional help text between the field label and
+the user input when editing records. As an example, the core uses the description property
+in the site configuration module when editing a site on some properties like `identifier`.
+
+The property is available on all common `TCA` types like `input` and `select` and so on.
+
+Example::
+
+    'columns' => [
+        'myField' => [
+            'label' => 'My label',
+            'description' => 'LLL:EXT:my_ext/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_tca.xlf:field.description',
+            'config' => [
+                'type' => 'input',
+            ],
+        ],
+    ],
+
+
+Impact
+======
+
+The change is fully backwards compatible and can be used by integrators or administrators
+to hint editors for expected field input.
