Why bother having an additional element for the description?  The title 
attribute already fills this role well enough.  Even more information 
about the link can be added using the facilities provided by the 
metadata attributes module.

Furthermore, the definition-list model is not structurally suited for 
this use, because it is too difficult to select the definition for a 
particular term using CSS.
