Thanks, I'll consider that for now. However, it has the downside that I 
have to make an explicit function call in every PHP file in order to 
send the headers. My use case is a site with an auto_prepend_file that 
sets a header that is relevant for almost all .php files on the site 
except a few that unsets the header.

So I hope people my patch for the PHP core will still be considered. I 
think the added functionality is in line with the existing functionality 
to replace and append to existing headers.
