I guess iff someone needs raw with headers in the future, I guess we could add --help-config-raw-headers.
I don't mind if you make it always with the headers. We can easily strip the first line when reading the file and people can easily strip it piping the output through a filter before sorting it etc.
I am thinking that the headers would allow a output formatting utility to do it in a way that is independent of the version, and avoid having to run "pg_config --version" as well. As the values are all strings it can blindly create a column for every header. The only fields that the program need to know about (like name and group) are not likely to change.
No big deal though.
