Currently when you want to separate render jobs based on worker capabilities you have to make a copy of the render task and change its name and task type to match the worker. Perhaps in the future this could be improved. For now it would already makes sense to have a description field at job_type level, to document why job types exists and where they are based on.

https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/F/browse/main/internal/manager/job_compilers/scripts/simple_blender_render.js

const JOB_TYPE = {
    label: "Blender Render (AMD)",
    description: "Adaptation of Simple Blender Render to only select workers with blender-amd tasks types.",

    ...

}

This would require the following steps:

Add the description to the AvailableJobType schema in flamenco-openapi.yaml
Make sure the Go code loads this new field properly from JavaScript.
Make sure the add-on shows the description in the submission UI.
