The point w.r.t. MIB module checking was that during editing phase, even a small typo in a double quote or some such would render the MIB module invalid/non-compilable (i.e. invalid SYNTAX). So if RPC does not touch the text at all, then there is no need for them to check. But if they DO touch it (even for pagination or some such) I would recommend doing the check. For MIB modules that should be pretty easy, simple and not cause much extra work. Of course the MIB module needs to be checked (SYNTAX that is) BEFORE it gets submitted to AD/IESG even.

While I have no objection in principle to the RPC doing this check, it seems likely that the burden of doing so would be significant and, at least for IETF-stream documents, not worthwhile for the relatively small gains realized. This sort of check should be done before a document is ever submitted to the IESG, let alone the RPC.
