Whilst we put some thought into better descriptions, I note that there
are 4 related grabbers that might warrant more unique descriptions:

na_dd: $$ Grabber for North America-schedulesdirect.org
sd_json:$$ Grabber for schedulesDirect.org SD-JSON service (many countries)
zz_sdjson: $$ Grabber for schedulesDirect.org SD-JSON service (many countries)
zz_sdjson_sqlite: $$ Grabber for schedulesDirect.org SD-JSON service
(many countries)

Ideally, in that short description we need to get across that:

i) sd_json is deprecated in favour of zz_sdjson; and

ii) zz_sdjson_sqlite is database-backed (if it's not obvious to
end-users from the name) and so different again to the regular
zz_sdjson grabber.

Cheers,
Nick
