(Roller 3.1) Creating blog entry-specific description meta tags

Hi, my blog is hosted on JRoller so I'm using Roller 3.1. For URLs
which point directly to a specific blog entry (such as here:
http://www.jroller.com/gmazza/entry/cxf_and_metro_team_links, instead of
a day, month, or category, etc.), I'd like to alter the <title> and
<meta name="description"/> tags in the HTML <head> part to increase hits
while Googling and also to make the Google title and description more
relevant for the blog posting. I got the former done fine in the
"header" template but am having problems with the latter:
#if ($model.permalink == false)
<title>#showWebsiteTitle()</title>
<meta name="description" content="#showWebsiteDescription()">
#else
<title>$model.weblogEntry.title | #showWebsiteTitle()</title>
<!--meta name="description" content="$model.weblogEntry.????"-->
#end
<title> works great now, but description is difficult, I don't know what
if anything I can place in that "????" above. Within each blog entry,
I'd like to have a field where I can put in the description blurb ("This
blog entry shows you blah blah blah...") that the above template would
read in.
Any ideas for Roller 3.1? If not, has this been solved in Roller 4.0 or
5.0? I can put in an enhancement request if it's not already available.
Thanks,
Glen
