I see.  Do you think it might be possible to add a read-only problem
detection mode to the script, whose output could be shown in the
commit log e.g..  About the qt version per module thing: perhaps there
could be an option to disable the ui version check for this situation,
so that the script would only handle/detect the two other problems ?
