Shouldn't be that hard.  For instance, I created this little snippet
in Tickets/Elements/EditCustomFields


      <script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
      <!--
        function MM_openBrWindow(theURL,winName,features) { //v2.0
                window.open(theURL,winName,features);
                 }
       //-->
       </script>
        [ <a href="#"
onClick="MM_openBrWindow('Custom-Descriptions.html?Queue=<%
$QueueObj->id %>&CustomField=<%$CustomField->id%>&CustomFieldName=<%$CustomField->Name%>','test','width=500,height=6
00')">Description of Choices</a> ]<br />


This pops open Custom-Descriptions.html which is a mason page I
created with all the code to make it look like a regular RT page with
a nice table of fields and their descriptions.
