Corresponding source code
You're right that before version control, people put history notes and contributors in the header more often, nowadays those comments go into the commit message. I don't feel that JPEG file is best practice. the Glibc ones are good though. Take a look at /usr/include/stdio.h
"Define ISO C stdio on top of C++ iostreams."
One clear line doesn't hurt does it?
It seems reasonable to have a few words to describe the purpose of the file as it's an interface. However, you're the maintainer, maybe close the ticket if we can't agree.
