Would it be feasible to have some sort of automation surrounding this?
Breaches that are fixed by a subsequent upload will very likely contain
some strings in the changelog: strip, distributable, dfsg-free or
non-free.
Also, a significant part of the breaches would have to be fixed by a
repacked tarball. Thus, detecting changes in the version string (adding
dfsg or repack) would give a good pointer on packages that need to go
from snapshot.debian.org.
Maybe. Hard to tell. Do you want to try it?
Unfortunately, I do not have time these days, so I can't commit myself
to it.
Most of the repackaging is done because we don't _want_ to redistribute
those files not because we do not have the right to redistribute them.

My perception of the matter is the other way around.
The check would be mostly useless IMO.
We can't really know until it has been tried.
