gEDA-user: Part specification

Hello

How do I correctly solve the following requirement?

I want to have in the "device" attribute in the schematic a short
description, for example "NE592" or "switch" and in the
bill of materials a longer, more detailed version, for example:
NE592_DIL14
2-pole_switch_gold_plated_6mm_hole
DC_power_central_pin_2.5mm_panel_female 
Green_5mm_diffuse_LED

I don't want to have these long strings in the schematic, because they
take up too much space.

Is some elegant solution using attributes possible?
