Honestly I would prefer to fail on any Checkstyle failures, and if some are too common or noisy, disable the unneeded checks. The intent of our use of Checkstyle is to reduce reviewer overhead while maintaining a coherent formatting; if a committer has to periodically fix up violations then we are just pushing the formatting responsibility around.
