I respectfully disagree: the description is the *essence* of the data 
type.  Otherwise the data type is just a random assortment of fields 
with no implied meaning in the real world, and therefore useless.  If 
you change the description, you change the version, even if you think 
its minor, others may not.

I agree that you should be able to change it without deregistering 
though, that's a major flaw...
