More precisely: we should be able to put headers inside the encrypted
messages soon, but we don't want to strip or stub-out the non-encrypted
headers *outside* the encrypted messages until we know that the messages
are readable by other users.
You should be able to generate signed headers (and to verify that the
headers are signed) before you start seeing headers that are actually
protected by encryption.
