Is there any particular reason that it is not possible to set the
description when making a sink with module-remap-sink (or his friends
module-combine, module-tunnel-sink, etc.)?
It seems that the description is always derived from the master sink, but I
would like to customize it, because this is the name that is shown in
interfaces like pavucontrol.

It has been a long time item ony my todo list to allow setting
arbitrary properties (including the description string) on all
sinks/sources from the module parameters. Should be relatively easy to
add but hasn't happened yet. Patches always welcome.

I added this to the airport sink recently... is this the approach you'd take (it's a fairly direct "description="blah"" argument) or do you want something more generic that copes with more things?

If you outline the approach I may take a stab.
