Neither 1 or 2.

The File Manager is currently based on Apache 
Slide which is a WebDAV server. You can then add 
as many new DAV properties to each binary file. 
Another option, is you only plan to display the 
file on a web page (and not to access to the new 
description field through the DAV API) is to 
create a containerlist (cf Jahia integration 
guide) which regroups a file field (in order to 
make a link between the DAV server and the Jahia 
ECM Server) and a description field (a small or 
big text in the Jahia vocabulary).
