Adding my stance, knowing others will as well.
One feature I would appreciate, it might exist in the config file, but I
am using a service, is an option that indeed lets you choose user agent
headers.
There is no such thing as most websites, individuals visit individually.
still, having the ability to move back and forth between the default lynx
agent, which works for most sites I visit, and an alternative that might
avoid 403 errors would be helpful.
So would encouraging folks not to block lynx itself, but that is another
discussion.
just my sickles.

Yes that header works! Am new to this woke side of internet, so a couple of
questions:
1) How does one select a header that works for most websites?
2) How often does one need to change this header?
3) Do pages render significantly different with different headers? Is there
some header wisdom, other than putting l_y_n_x or lynx in it?

Buzzing annoys lynxes.
It works with my User-Agent header:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100115
Firefox/3.6 l_y_n_x
