--- Comment #3 from Fernando Apesteguía <fernape@FreeBSD.org> ---
ifconfig_(interface)_descr can be used for this:

$ grep descr /etc/rc.conf
ifconfig_wlan0_descr="my wireless interface"

<reboot>

$ ifconfig wlan0
wlan0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
        description: my wireless interface
        <rest of the output omitted>
