9.1.   #282: FAPI 2.0: x-fapi-* headers (Dave)

Dave asked if these are really needed as it would impact the Advanced profile signature.

Francis pointed out that IP address etc. are needed by criminal investigators so they need to be there though their effectiveness as far as security is concerned is unknown.

Ralph pointed out they need to be there but it does not have to be in the header. Also, he pointed out that it may not be accurate. However, they are needed.
