Yes, that is something that should be checked too, but I've left it as
"further work" for now, and I'm not planning it in this set, as I view it
as less important and this set is big-enough as it is for now. :-)

Code actually was written in 2020 hence the date there.

Yes, we could do that, though we need a suitable name, since they aren't
internal only or private. :-) Maybe just have it literally called
"skip_chkincs_headers"? Open to more ideas...
