Oh, it was clear you were referring to the commit message -- what
I now realize is that you were referring to the first line of the
commit message (the summary line).
Unfortunately, the 'CONTRIBUTE' file at the top level of the Org
Mode source tree gives incomplete guidance on commit messages (it
just says to follow what Emacs does, so I did that). I didn't
realize that
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#commit-messages has
further, slightly different guidance.
Thanks. I'm happy to adhere to the local standards, once I figure
out what they are :-).

You did!

Makes sense, yup. Actually, I usually include the link -- I just
didn't think of it in this case because I rarely visit the Org
Mode mailing list archives (unlike the Emacs Devel archives, which
I often do visit, and therefore my commits in Emacs always include
the link when referring to a mailing list post).
A revised patch is attached. Now it's so simple that I think the
commit message doesn't need to point to the mailing list
discussion anyway. Review welcome.
Best regards,
