Some of my entities’ friendly name is too long and it got cut halfway like this…

I know I can make the friendly name shorter to solve this but it is not descriptive enough for others to understand.

Therefore, I would like to request for a new Attribute under customize section known as description so that I can describe the entity in more details and it will appear under the friendly name in the card.

Example…

automation.car_porch_motion_light:
  friendly_name: 'Car Porch Motion Light'
  description: 'Automation: Turn on Car Porch Lights when there is a movement'

Very nice idea. And if it can be made templatable - coul really help in displaying statuses

Just a thought: create a card for your automations and name it Car Porch Automations. Then rename accordingly.

Automation: Turn on Car Porch Lights when there is a movement

becomes

Motion activated lights
