EPDM - Description while offline

I have done a search a found comments back in 2011 that it is s known limitation that descriptions are not available while in offline mode.

Is this still the case?

I can not see any way to make this work other than having the description as part of the file name, ie "ABC2410 - Base Plate.SLDPRT". Really don't want this because it means multiple parts can be stored with the same part id but a different description, ie "ABC2410 - Cross Beam.SLDPRT".

Anyone else have any other ideas that are practical to use with and engineering staff of 50+?
