Let's slow down a bit on this idea and discuss it on the dev list. FindBugs has a very, very, very broad definition of a bug. I bet there are cases where checkstyle and findbugs *disagree* about some source construct.
Things it complains of should be talked over on dev before anyone bothers to make patches. Our Sonar instances already runs it, I believe, so you can see what it complains about already.
