You know IPP probably much better than I, but as I studied IPP a bit a few
years ago, I remember that there are IPP Job attributes like
Job Description Attribute
Job Attribute
job-detailed-status-messages
job-impressions
job-impressions-completed
job-state-message
etc.

As an IPP server should be able to return those for a job, why don't you
provide job objects in the web interface?

For the URI thing itself: If the job ID refers to the jobs's printer, why
don't you create a message like "job xyz-# was printed on xyz" where the
second "xyz" is a hyperlink to the printer? That would be less confusing.
