Could you do something like:

1. Make a list of the headers you're interested in processing (you
   probably already do this).

2. Make a list of the "umbrella" headers that you'll process. This
   may be implicit, by abandoning processing when you try to process
   something that needs to be included by an umbrella or whatever.

3. Process the umbrella headers, but look up the source location in your
   list of interesting headers from (1) to decide where the information
   comes from.
