Computer Janitor offers to clean up my 10.04 install by removing a selection of linux headers. (which I presume are old kernels - is this correct?)

Should this be done? What are the implications for hardware such as Realtek wireless cards which don't seem to be supported in some kernels, and are flaky at the best of times?
