There is the ideal, and there is what we have. The "ideal" way would be to 
ensure that the extra paragraph types for running headers appear if and only if 
page layout "fancy" is checked. Currently, that can't be done with modules.  
But at least we have the running headers now, which is nice.

The biggest problem I see is that the current module is for single-side 
printing only. Fancyhdr support double-side printing too, and then you have 
separate left/center/right header/footer for odd and for even pages. 

I am not sure what the best way is:
 * add to this module? That adds many new paragraph types, which will be "just 
clutter" for those that use single-side printing.
 * make another module for dual-sided printing?  Less clutter, but switching 
between double- and single-sided print will be harder.

Integration into LyX is the ideal way, but then someone has to do that instead.
