title: Can a Jenkins job set the description build upon starting the build
body: <p>I am familiar with the <strong>Description Setter plugin</strong> (<a href="https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Description+Setter+Plugin" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Description+Setter+Plugin</a>), but it only kicks in as a <em>post-build action</em>. I have some very long testing builds and I would like to set the build description right on the start - either as a pre-build or as a build step.</p>
