In Excel 2013, I’ve discovered that the KPI description, Value description, Status description and Target description disappear when you re-open a workbook.

In the Key Performance Indicator window, all 4 of these fields get wiped out. Looking at a Power View report (i.e. when you hover over the KPI), it looks like the Value description is actually still there, but the other descriptions are gone.
