I did it, sorry.  I was not aware those who use
`gnus-treat-date-user-defined' also use other date treatments.
Because it is possible to insert any date headers using
`gnus-article-time-format'.  For example:

(setq gnus-treat-date-user-defined 'head
      gnus-article-time-format
      (lambda (time)
	(let ((date (message-make-date time)))
	  (format "Date: %s\nX-Sent: %s"
		  (article-make-date-line date 'ut)
		  (article-make-date-line date 'lapsed)))))

(The code is inefficient, so it's no more than an example,
though.)

The patch seems good anyway, and I cannot imagine any obstacle
occurring with it.  So, I'd like to install it, later.

I think it's worth to make a study of them.  Thanks.
