Again, I think you're mixing some things up here.  If the 400 odd bytes
of X-Header content offends you, you can feel free to strip them out.
X-Headers are user or site specific, arbitrary, and irrelevant.

Standard headers like References (see how there's no X- prefix?) are
not, and should be left in place.  That was the point of this
discussion.
