Should archive links go in the submission header?

Many people now submit archive links of news stories, for reasons that don't need to be repeated here. Submitted as comments, they have 3 shortcomings:

- creating the appearance (on the new or main page) that a discussion has begun, when it hasn't

- the archive link isn't always the top comment so it can get lost among others, obviating its utility

- when it is a top comment, it's visually distracting

Proposal: HN recognizes links like archive.org, archive.today, archive.is, archive.ph etc. and adds them to the submission header alongside the title or 'menu line' immediately underneath.
