Personally I still don't think that's the best place for it. Why
make all the people who *download* your module check something that
should be checked at "make dist" time?
Did people not like the idea of putting these checks as plugins
into Module::Release?
I strongly suspect that the people who use Module::Release are not
the ones uploading modules with boilerplate. Putting the test in
Module::Release is a good idea, but it would not abate the primary
problem under discussion.
