This is the thing, I wasn't sure what's acceptable as core 
functionality, or it needs to be handled separately whether as a check 
or module etc.
To clarify, it's not for one project that I'm working on where it is a 
one-off change. I hit the problem often trying to package things, so 
having the checks as part of the build infra is useful.

Sincerely,
