For information, there is now a list of tools to check grammar (in addition to spelling) in XML formatted IETF drafts.
The list is on this public IESG wiki page:

Eric Vyncke <evyncke@xxxxxxxxx> Written by a non-English speaker... The IESG believes that the I-D review (in last call, in IESG telechat, ...) could be improved for some documents if the grammar was correct and typos absent (and I plead guilty to do typos in
my documents). Easier said than done of course. Most modern word processors have this feature but I know about no tools able to do this check on .XML or .TXT... So, we are looking forward for any tools on-line/off-line being able to do this. It could be a tool-chain built on GNU aspell or course (but aspell does not check grammar) or via an API to
