I appreciate some context for stories that don't necessarily have obvious interest based just on their title. For example, this story https://lobste.rs/s/nvof4f/fourth_tier_llvm_javascript_jit_enabled_in_webkit_mac has a nice - almost too long - explanation of why it's interesting in the optional text field.
It'd be nice to display e.g. the first line of that text, if it exists, in the main story list, so that context could be of use when scanning the stories. As-is, if the story has no comments, it looks like I have to judge the link by title alone.
