'this' is actually specified as the class name of the model (CamelCased and all) Aha! This fixed not only my heading-override problem, but also most of my hinting problem as well. If you want to hint the name to display for 'this', you need to use the CamelCasedClassName in the field_name hint.
Looking through the doc for the field overrides and for hints, I can't see how I could have learned this syntax for specifying 'this', BTW. Much appreciated tip. Also, TIL that if you put a hyphenated-field-name into a <field_list>, it works! The field is included in the table. However, you can't specify a field_name hint for it; it just gets ignored.
