Change a workflow task description dynamically?

How would one go about changing the task description dynamically?  I would like to append the content name (bpm_package.children[0].name) to the task node description so it is easier to identify in the "My Tasks to Do" dashlet.

It does not appear that the bpm_workflowTask property is exposed in the Javascript API.  If not, how could I access the task description via a Java action?

Thanks.

There's an example of this in the 2.1 wcm submit process…

  <task name="wcmwf:reviewTask">
           <assignment class="org.alfresco.repo.workflow.jbpm.AlfrescoAssignment">
              <actor>#{bpm_assignees.get(wcmwf_approveCnt)}</actor>
           </assignment>
           <event type="task-assign">
              <script>
                 if (wcmwf_reviewCycle > 1)
                    taskInstance.description = taskInstance.description + " (" + wcmwf_reviewCycle + ")";
              </script>
           </event>           
        </task>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍
