Retaining the identity of the composer is paramount in importance to knowing the name of the tune, and thus it needs its own header, separate from having this information buried in an Index line. If you see a C: in a list of headers, then it serves as gentle reminder that this is an entry that really should be filled out.
Does using A-G, X and Z in a header ever cause confusion with a notes and rests? I honestly don't see how, but if so, please explain it to me. Seriously.

I've been working on an Abc 2.0 proposal, which is a stripped-down version of 1.6. Amongst other things, I removed most of the headers (notably A-G, X and Z, to avoid confusion with notes and rests). I admit it's a little radical :) http://bespin.org/~tom/abc2-tcn.txt
