UI Improvement: Display User Group 'Description' from Cognito in Amplify

[thevangelist]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Cannot find other issues.

Describe the solution you'd like

I will add 60+ organisations with Amplify group names such as "123123312" (from another source system). The management of these organizations will be done by an Admin from our customer. Thus I was hoping that the option to insert group description similarly as in Cognito backend would be possible.

As you can imagine, it's not easy to figure out what group is from just these vanity ID's

123123213
123213214
12332534
[60+]

This is what the current creation of groups looks like:

Also, I wish this info to be shown in the groups metadata listing, here, as a new column:

I think it's a pretty useful option for other usages similar as mine. Just the idea of having some simple metadata related to groups and editable in Amplify directly would be nice.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Adding the group descriptions from Cognito user pools, and only displaying them in Amplify (probably faster to implement for you). But still it's cumbersome for our end-user Admin.

Additional context

How group description is edited in Cognito user pools. This is where the group description is easily editable - but it's hard to teach our end-user Admin to use this
