For VBA functions, we should have a way to run the Application.MacroOptions code to register descriptions etc. that show in the Insert Function dialog. I don't know when this is needed or might work for other .xll add-ins - probably not needed. We probably should add a flag to the xml and Worksheet format to indicate this should be done.

Alternatively we might ahve an API taht can be called from VBA to register the descriptions etc, alongside or instead of the Application.MacroOptions code, and instead of the Worksheet / xml solution.

As I already stated in some comments to issues/PRs, I (already) created some code to call MacroOptions with values from the .IntelliSense.xml file which you now can find at https://github.com/VBA-tools2/IntelliSense_MacroOptions.vba. Feel free to use whatever code may help you/you find useful.

Hopefully the README file gives you enough information on how it works. If anything is unclear, please let me know I'll try to shed some light into the dark.
