Background

CKAN Version: v1.25.1

Suggestion

Show both the abstract and description for a mod. To be fancy, use the abstract as a summary which, if clicked on, opens the description.

There's currently not much point adding a description instead of an abstract in NETKAN as it's never seen in the GUI (which, I would hesitate to guess, over 99% of users use instead of the command-line version).

Some additional tracking info, this originated in the discussion of KSP-CKAN/NetKAN#6587. The abstract is displayed here:

Util.Invoke(MetadataModuleAbstractLabel, () => MetadataModuleAbstractLabel.Text = module.@abstract);

That's a good point. We've got that huge box in the top right, and we're just using the abstract.
