yes, this sounds useful.

Can you propose a patch against current Org master branch?

See https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html on how to contribute.

If you need to contribute more than 15 lines of code or want to be
able to contribute later on, please fill this form:

https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode/raw/master/request-assign-future.txt

Also, as John noted already, "desk" is confusing, you can simply use
"description" (long names are not a problem.)

Thanks in advance!
