    If the discussion was in a public mailing list, a URL of the message
    that started the thread would IMHO be a better way of pointing to it.

The date and sender are in the message--the URL is not.  It would be
too difficult to find the URLs and put them in the change log.
(Would you want to find the URLs for me?)
