I think I prefer "info" dictionary rather then a string. Dict "info"
which I use already have something like this:
sqlalchemy.Column('DRIVE_TRAIN', sqlalchemy.Unicode(4)
,info={"description":"DRIVE TRAIN TYPE [AWD,4WD,FWD,RWD]"}),
sqlalchemy.Column('FUEL_SYS', sqlalchemy.Unicode(4)
,info={"description":"FUEL SYSTEM CODE",
"FI":"FUEL INJECTION",
"TB":"TURBO"}),
Would be nice if the whole dictionary was written to a database. I
could use info[description], info[FI], info[TB] etc... when I display
data. That would be really useful definition!!!
