I'd vote for 3 changes:
1. make the word "proposal" all-caps:

Subject: F37 Change: Legacy Xorg Driver Removal (System-Wide Change PROPOSAL)

2. add a header at the top of the email:

Note: this is just a PROPOSAL … smthng … will be voted … announced when approved

3. add something to the Change page template to show a banner as long as
it's not in approved state. Looking at the page, it's entirely not obvious
that this is just a proposal, unless you know exactly where to look halfway
down the page.

It'll also help users who reach the wiki page independently.
