Show more information in approval dialogs

Currently when you click on an approval step in a workflow you get a standard modal dialog that does not tell you which step you clicked on. Since we have multiple parallel approval steps this makes it impossible to see if you clicked the right step or mis-clicked and might be approving the wrong thing. At a minimum I would think the dialog should show the name of the step that you are approving.
It would also be very nice if you can add a description for the step in config.yml which will be shown in that dialog. This can have important information for users related to automatic deployments.

Adding an ability to dynamically control the approval message (say from the previous step) would be particularly useful here
We use CirlceCI for automated deployments and need to test a server based on a hosts file (where the IP address is dynamic) prior to approval, having the ability to pass a message (or control it in some way would be exceptionally helpful)

We have multiple release pipelines / jobs and I need this too. The issue is not everyone on my team will know which approval step to execute PLUS a description can help avoid human error.

Voting for this as well. I wouldn't need much more than just seeing the step name in the popup.
