1. You could do it in a system filter using logfile and logwrite.
2. You could use an "unseen" router to a transport with headers_only to
save all headers, or to a transport with a transport filter that saves
just the ones you want. (Or to a pipe that does what you want.)

There's a more general wish list item to allow for a local hook like
local_scan() to be added for all logging, but that is rather overkill
for this particular requirement.
One problem I see with header logging in the main log is how to format
it. One possibility would be to define an option that lets you set a
string to be added to the <= line. Then the format is your problem. :-)
