The Header is just what it says: a header, NOT an account.
So e.g. as a Header above 25 different bank accounts in the UK, you could
use the header " UK bankaccounts" and then use another header for 15
differet USA bankaccounts and so on.
This is good for the human readable form of a GL-scheme.
But not at all needed for the accounting package to function properly.

Knowing that headers also tend to mess up reports (correction: the reports
template code gets more difficult and might show surprising results when
adding the header ledger in the result of additions or something like that))
it might be a good idea to get rid of headers alltogether. If eeded make an
extra version of the GL-scheme with
 # commented out#
header lines.

A good GL-scheme is self explaining and would not want header files to
explain what journal entry should go where.
