Richard,

I do recall your request, but didn't think of it when the announce went
out.

Retraining is necessary only when there's a major lexer change and that
doesn't happen very often.  If upgrading from 0.15.5 or newer, there's
no need in retraining.  If upgrading from 0.15.4 or older,  retraining
would be valuable as it would add "head:" prefixes for header line
tokens (that aren't otherwise being tagged).
