Support markdown and/or HTML in dashboard descriptions

See original GitHub issue

In particular, I’m linking out to external sites in my dashboard descriptions, so it would be great to have those hyperlinked (currently the viewer has to manually copy/paste the URL, which is shown as plain text). Since the package already has both markdown and bleach as dependencies, it doesn’t seem like this should be technically complex, although perhaps making it backwards-compatible might be non-trivial…

Anyways, happy to discuss this further and start a PR if it’s deemed a good idea.
