No, but I think that we really want to push people reading a draft to be aware of, and look at, the datatracker page for up-to-date information on the status of the draft.  E.g., the draft contains little information about what stage of the process it is at, and even the information that it does contain (e.g., the draft name) is not obvious/clear to those outside of IETF.  Hence, it may be helpful for the draft to also include a URL to the datatracker page for that draft.
Yes, line that says “For the latest status about this draft, please see https:/…” but generating that in the content of draft and then submitting it will require some tricky time-travel work I think.

But the question is if any draft status page will be useful to anyone not already knowledgeable about the IETF and how its processes work.  Look at https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-tapril-ns2/ as one of zillions of examples.

In other words, I think your reply would impose a greater burden on the non-IETF folks and therefore isn’t really an answer other than “no, we don’t care” which is not what I think you mean or want.
