Bug Description

right now we're passing all of service through verifyStructStringsAgainstWhitelist, which is unnecessarily strict for the description. Consider special-casing description to be more lenient.

From a developer coming up against this:

> no commas in service description?? services description field 'Description' contains illegal 'Small, powerful, scalable web/proxy server' (legal: '^[A-Za-z0-9/. _#:-]*$')
