FWHM into FITS header?

It would be great if we could get the FWHM value of the stars in the image into the FITS header. This information would be very helpful when post processing the subframes.

Gabe,
Are you saying you want 853 FWHM values written into the header? (made up number of stars)
How would you use this?
Just about every software package I use has an image grader built into it.

It’s true there are many packages out there that can do this. However, I think it should be an easy thing to take the HFR that’s already measured each time a frame is downloaded from the camera and append that to the FITS header. It would save a lot of time and help with grading images outside of SGP.
