I have written some Python scripts to work with Kicad schematics. One of the reason I wrote them is that, when I was first using Kicad, I was accidentally doing silly things with eeschema on a regular basis.
There is some DRC functionality there that can find some things that eeschema doesn't. You can take a look at kipy.org, or if that seems overwhelming, send me your project and I will take a look at it.
