New rule request
As most people will couple custom IDETemplateMacros.plist's FILEHEADER with SwiftLint as described here. It would be nice if we could skip mirroring it in opt_in_rules's -file_header:required_pattern: and point to the plist file directly.

Research direction
Start with the custom IDETemplateMacros.plist FILEHEADER setup and SwiftLint's existing file_header required_pattern configuration. Define done as allowing the plist path to be used directly so users no longer mirror the pattern in opt_in_rules; verify the behavior against the existing configuration path.
