One of my customers learnt that profile field descriptions are not shown on the signup page. So I went looking and found the inactive tracker issue MDL-26343 where no development had been done. Thankfully implementing this feature was quite simple and I quickly checked out a new branch and added the changes.
Now I want to give back the changes to the community, however the tracker issue is closed due to inactivity. Do I open a new one, or do I reopen this issue?

First question: do you think this is a nice feature to have in core?
Second question: do you think my method is proper?
