Please educate me. Why can't they fix the client to not allow headless mode to join servers? It's not like the server software relies on it- it's a completely different piece of software that has little to do with the client. Who's getting hurt by simply not allowing headless clients?
Any client rejection would have to occur server side. I'm assuming that the client doesn't even report to the server if it's running headless. Nonetheless, it'd be trivial to mod the client to report that it's not running headless even if it is.
