Aha. Then one more point in the feature list won't make it longer anymore, so why not to add this? > Also right not the validation takes about 1 hour on my computer.

AFAIK, import of documentation translations for a new release cycle performed only once and its normally based on current documentation for latest stable release. I think it is possible to perform validity check as you do right now, just before the import of translations to stable+1, so that errors introduced in stable do not propagate further on.
