Before we get _too_ excited:

a) the semantics of this need to be spelled out.   For example, 
   if given `--log-header standard-date=XXXXXX', what kind of 
   parsing and validation should happen for XXXXXX?  What about
   `--log-header New-files=YYYYY'?

b) anyway: is someone volunteering to write the code?
