I think there should be some more detail in the FAQ about the commanders
/ detachment HQs. Jervis' answer recently was somewhat vague,
indicating that the lists were correct and the examples wrong.

For the record, it seems logical that:

Ork, Imperial Guard and Tyranids as per the lists.
(Although the Ork Warlord appears 10pts overpriced as a result)

Space Marine Detachments -
        any unit as detachment HQ at +25 to basic cost
or Captain HQ at 25+25=50 (plus any upgrades)
or Librarian HQ at 35+25=60 (plus upgrades)

Ditto for the Armour Detachment
        This tallies with the cost of a Chapter Master (a Captain with
commander status) at 50pts.

Eldar Detachments -
        any unit as detachment HQ at +25 to basic cost
or Farseer HQ at 50 (plus any upgrades)
        This tallies with the cost of the commanders

Chaos Marine Detachments
        any unit as detachment HQ at +25 to basic cost
or Chaos Lord HQ at 25+25=50 (plus any upgrades)
or Sorceror HQ at 35+25=60 (plus upgrades)
        This tallies with the cost of the commanders
