When you iterate over a dictionary/mapping such as a folder, you iterate over 
its keys, not its values. Thus, item is just a string, which clearly does not 
have a description. You could alternatively iterate over "folder/values".

Having said that, I would strongly you to use view classes instead of TTW 
development, which is not supported at this point.
