Any reason why fields in the catalog tables don't have descriptions? If
I were to create a patch to add them, what part of the code would I need
to look at?

The documentation for the catalogs is in catalogs.sgml. I would much
rather see people seeking info go to the HTML docs; pg_description could
at best provide a small part of what you see in the docs.
