I don't think we should block the creation of a useful new tool like
that (something that ought to be plugged into 'wx' along with the
other style checkers) just because the existing scripts aren't already
clean.

If we worked that way, we'd never have cstyle or lint, because the
gate itself isn't entirely cstyle or lint clean.

It'd probably be necessary to make at least one non-trivial script
clean (to make sure that the tool itself works), but doing "all" of
them shouldn't be a gating item.  Instead, file a bug.  :-/
