You can embed Vorbis comments into a FLAC file also, this will allow the
track / album descriptions to be visible.

Here's a sample album of mine:

METADATA block #3

This, along with an embedded CUE sheet, means that all the information you
need is in one file. Much simpler for backups if you ask me. You can still
export the CUE sheet from the FLAC file at a later date if you need to use
it to burn a CD.
