Why should it? The default user uses TBB, i.e. the filtering (of the
identical headers each TBB produces) can be done there as well.

The exit node doesn't even know that a) a given stream is a HTTP
connection, b) can't look at all into HTTPS, and c) has no way of knowing
that the user in question has clicked the don't-filter-me-button.
