I am not sure that any tools allow for a way to suppress this type of behaviour. The header comments have become almost expected for headers, and usually contain the copyright information. To my best knowledge all PO editors do something similar to what we do. While Pootle doesn't allow direct editing of the header comments, it will allow you to remove them if you upload a file in overwrite mode if you really need this, but I assume these headers aren't a real problem, are they? If we don't do it already, I think we will include the names of all contributors in the header as we already do in Virtaal. The rest of the comments are left untouched.
