Use data from this to give contribution recognition to the chosen community member in the final commit message automatically.

volkswagenchickAttribution for mentors can be a great incentive.
I think this is brilliant.
Can the mentor attribution field also have an "at organization" tick box for those mentors who are paid through their orgs and customers?

realityloopAsking so far has me with only 26 people listing me as a mentor from the several thousand people I invited to do so during first time contributor workshops.
I think this will be great and should get more uptake than mentors asking people to list them as a mentor.
