for a page or section. While this description is generally not shown on the
page itself, it is used in automatic links to the page or section. It may
also be used for various other purposes by different tools.</p>

<p>The <code>desc</code> is not necessarily displayed on the page in which it
appears. It is, however, used for <link xref="links">automatic links</link>,
which usually display a link block showing the title and description of the
linked-to page or section. When it is displayed, its contents are treated
as inline content.</p>
