Here is a patch that allows the user more options regarding population of the term's description. Had to change a few things in the code to do this (nothing major though).

Thanks for the patch Domas. I've only looked at the patch visually and wanted to bring a couple of issues to light:

  1. If the variable name 'body' is changed to 'desc', an update will be required. I recommend just leaving it as 'body'. It's not all that much of a misnomer.
  2. There are a few style issues. Please run the patched module through the coder module.
  3. Ideally, comments would be capitalised and terminated with a period.
  4. Please also fix the doxygen comments for the new function.

Cheers,
-K

Subscribing,
very interested in this feature, is there still light in this tunnel?

NAT already supports Node body -> Term description syncing. For UI reasons, adding a teaser option is highly unlikely.

@Zen

Can you elaborate on the "UI reasons" why adding a teaser option is highly unlikely?

Glossary and this module make a good combination to implement my glossary system. However, it would be perfect if this module has a teaser option.
