--- Comment #1 from sp...@wikimedia.org ---
The second line is accountcreatedtext => 'The user account for $1 has been
created.'

Yes, it could usefully have links "Habo (Talk)".  Both would likely be redlinks
as the user didn't exist before.  I tried changing MediaWiki:accountcreatedtext
to:

The user account for [[{{ns:User}}:$1|$1]] ([[{{ns:User talk}}:$1|talk]]) has
been created.

on my local wiki and it worked!

So wikis can make this change. As to whether it *should* be in core, does the
convenience of providing these links outweigh the confusion from the message
getting technical and adding redlinks?  Note that this message appears when
someone who's already logged in creates an additional account, for someone else
or as a sockpuppet. I would expect mostly advanced users do this.

Anyway the core change is gerrit 37606
