There is an entry in my TODO losely related to this :
- make header content user configurable with some predefined macros.
  _DELAY_ for example.

As latest 1.5.x releases are pretty stable, as soon as I find some time,
I'll clean up the log parsing tool and release 1.6.0 (I feel a need for
a stable version with a database setup adapted to high-throughput
servers). Then I'll start the 1.7.x devel branch right away with some
features waiting in the pipe. reject_reply and prepend_header
configuration would make it into 1.7.x too.

Cheers,

Lionel.
