If you define an advice on a command, and in that advice you provide an interactive form, You're aiming for the wrong goal. It isn't a matter of "a more accurate description". What we need is not a _description_ -- of any kind. What we need is a precise test case. Please read the Bugs section in the Emacs manual, which provides guidelines on how to write a bug report to give us the necessary information so we can fix the bug.
