Pan supports viewing now, with KHaley's latest patches (including the one 
that I needed to take care of cairo's crashing). =:^)

And of course posting, you simply add the header as you would any other 
custom header. =:^)  You just have to have some tool generate it first, 
and it appears from the above that you have that covered.

So x-face is the old b/w version, face is the newer color version.  Pan 
supports viewing and posting of both, tho you feed pan the encoded header 
for posting; it's not smart enough to encode it on its own.
