Yes, that should be enough for my personal use. There is however another reason that makes including this information in existing messages as text useful: many mailing list archives do not include headers, making it not possible to access further information unless one recognizes this as a bug report for Debian and knows how to access the bug tracker. Including links might be helpful to people -- including non-Debian users -- who find these messages via a search engine.
