Yes, this would also solve the problem.

I guess that this will also require an update of the follow link
function in Org?

If I try to add a link with message ID such as the one above by hand, I
cannot follow it (it seems to try to interpret the message ID as article
number in the group).

Since I know which group I am asking to move things to, being able to
link to the message ID directly would definitely solve the problem, and
maybe even more elegantly, as it should be robust against resorting the
mail group.
