Comment (by solarissmoke):

 The rel="pingback" bit looks relatively easy to implement.

 The X-Pingback header is not however, because currently headers are sent
 way before WP has any idea what it is serving. I think this is a bigger
 issue because it means that things like Last-Modified headers are generic
 and don't actually reflect the last modified time of the content being
 served (which sort of defeats the purpose of having them).
