It is interesting that every one of these starts in "X-".

It looks shorter, but uglier, if I exclude X-. Avert your eyes
now:

Some might say that these are the worst even including X-. I,
uh, I don't know what to say, but maybe doing these queries
may not have been a good idea and you should shoot me now.
"Authentication-Results-Original
Original-Authentication-Results" oh god.

No, I think the data are always helpful.  So much for my guess
that we could address the problem by going after the "X-" stuff.
That also may suggest a review of whether deprecating the use of
"X-" and substituting a registration requirement with expert
review just encourages name-squatting without any
warning/indication.
