Not that this would not be useful.  It's just that it's a lot of detail
work and finetuning without providing any new functionality.  To get a
warning, you need to actually _run_ the source file, and in most cases
that means that proofreading would equally well tell you what you want
to know.  So the return for the one-time investment in programming is
rather small.  I won't object if anybody wants to work on this, but at
the current point of time I myself have stuff I consider more important.
