#52353: Comments list's link should point to an actual article

 **Scope**: Page that you see after clicking "Approve it" in an email
 informing you that you have a new comment to be approved. The view of (all
 | to be approved) comments for given post.

 **Actual behaviour**: Main (large-font) link with article title points
 into edit mode of titled article and opens up Block editor (Gutenberg).

 **Expected behaviour**: Main link with should point to an actual article
 in the web page or blog. And a small-font additional link below main title
 should point to an editor.

 Proposed look / behaviour:

 **Judgement**: In my opinion, in most cases after you approve or respond
 to some comment, you want to see an actual article in your blog, not to go
 to edit mode of it. Most comments are just comments. The number of
 comments pointing to some mistate in text (that would require you to go to
 edit mode) is very low IMHO.

 As a blog network owner of 18 blogs it drives me crazy that I don't have a
 quick link to main article in comment approval view. That I have a
 pointless and never used huge link pointing to editor instead. And that I
 have to jiggle with small date-like links under "Submitted on" column to
 get to actual page.
