I thought it was documented, but either I was wrong or can't find it.
But I found process/5.Posting.rst, which provides this example:

        Link: https://example.com/somewhere.html  optional-other-stuff

So no "# " there. So to avoid inconsistencies I guess this should not be
applied, unless that document is changed as well.  

This is inconsistent with every other trailer that includes comments.
Currently, there are two mechanisms to provide comments with trailers:

1:

    | Trailer-name: trailer-content # trailer-comment

2:

    | Trailer-name: trailer-content
    | [trailer-comment]

Where do you see that?

Whenever I do the second one, it has nothing to do with the tag, but
what I have done to the patch/commit.

    Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) [off-list ref]

That is, if I do any modification of the original submission, I
document it this way.

For the sake of consistency, all trailers, including Link, should use one of
these two mechanisms for "optional-other-stuff".
