Feature Request: Pull Tool Information / Description into Work Order

Our Nest CNC is limited in the number of tools the carrier can hold.  (10 specifically)  As we grow and adapt, we are finding it necessary to add additional tooling for solid surface, special profiles, etc.  But being limited in tooling that can be on the machine at any given time is now requiring us to specify / report what tooling is being used for each work order and their locations.   The goal is to create a cover page report that does this.  

Currently Microvellum does not pull the _ToolsDescription into the Work Orders.  In the tool file the _ToolsDescription is a defined name that we think should be able to be pulled into the work orders so that a report of the tooling needed, and its location can be used. 

We can see and use the Tool# and _ToolsDescription in 2D Part editor.  We just need the same options to be available in the Work Order.
