I read: http://www.google.com/patents/US7215773

and I find: 

  In RSA or Rabin signatures there are generally three routines, namely
  key pair generation, signature generation and signature
  verification. Validating an RSA public key (n, e) involves three
  steps. Firstly validate e, secondly validate n and thirdly validate e
  and n are consistent with each other. In order to validate the public
  exponent e, use of made of the fact that the exponent 2<=e<=2(k

I can not speculate as to whether there is prior art, but it seems to
match what we have been discussing.
