This duplicates the functions of NNTP-Posting-whatever, doesn't seem
to require the minimal function of X-Trace, doesn't require dropping the
NNTP-... if you use Injector-Info. Therefore it's more clutter, not
less.
Unless I missed the part about dropping NNTP-xxx if you use
Injector-Info. Otherwise it's "more crud you can add to your header"
IMHO.
