Interesting idea, yes. It needs some processing of the maintainer scripts which might not be trivial. Basically grepping for the template name would qui easily bring the priority that's used (something like "look at the word between db_input and the template name"). I however suspect there might be corner cases that would complicate this. It brings me another idea, indeed: check if there are templates.....that aren't used anymore in a package. I'm not sure whether this test already exists in lintian, or not.
