Show topic description when selecting from a type with "Display as Enumerated List"

When adding a property, Freebase has this neat feature while doing the autocomplete that if you hover the mouse over one of the suggested topics it displays a little window with the topic description. But if the type of the property is "Display as Enumerated List", it doesn't show the topic description when you hover. Can you add this neat trick for enumerated types?

  • Hidden topics

    Seems like a silly question, but does Freebase support a notion of hidden Topics - Topics that do not appear when you retrieve the Topics for a Type?   I'm exploring the use of Freebase for step-by-step tutorials, where each tutorial is divided into sections.    Using a Topic for a...
