a very good question indeed as that's a bug! If you take a close look at
output of 'map-ladspa-list' versus that of 'map-cop-list', the param
description field for LADSPA plugins is indeed empty (there is a name
field for every param). I'm not sure if anyone is using the param
description field (for most internal ops, description is short and equals
to just stating the parameter name only), which explains why nobody has
noted this before.

If you have a fix for this, that'd be great.
