Actually, while headers are perhaps individually small, in the aggregate 
they are significant - the compressed size of the ones that currently 
end up on the live CD because we lack a facet to exclude them is >6 MB.

Perhaps it would help if the facet were more specific: facet.header, 
facet.dtrace, etc., and leave something that's fairly vague like devel 
as a higher-level expression that aggregates in some user-meaningful way.
