Besides Gary's comments, another wrinkle is that we currently require
headers to be declared in the license or its appendix [1].  We are
likely to relax that limitation soon to “declared somewhere by the
license steward” [2], but for the moment, the handbook page you link
may be too far from the license for inclusion.

Cheers,
