I have often in the past injected some display stuff into the description 
of a job or view.  For example when we were iterating and changing versions 
a lot.  We had a version.txt field that we sourced into the description 
page (we used some rough html hacks to get it done).  When it worked (it 
stopped working) it was great.  

Has there been any thought into more formal support?  I was thinking it 
would be useful to be able to expand token macro expressions in the 
description.  I would imagine a similar yet different set of security issue 
that the "anything goes" plugin has.

At this point what I want to do is have a bunch of links in the job 
description.  I need to reference different protocols (like ssh which is 
not technically a protocol but it will suffice for my needs) and different 
ports on the same hostname as the jenkins machine.  

The original thought was to use the groovy plugin to extract the hostname.  
Something like

<a href="ssh://${GROOVY, script='hostname...''}:1232">ssh url</a>

Right now I think I can cover that with some prototype javascript and the 
anything goes plugin.
