That'd be great.

Yep, and last time I checked also compile time improvements were poor
(if measurable at all) because of this.
But with further cleanups like what you suggested we'll (slowly, but
steadily) proceed.
I also intend to redo the analysis after further header file detangling,
but let's get this applied first.
