I think that'd work nicely.

At some point it'd be nice to extend that to have a checkstyle-like way of 
specifying a coding style and having cheesecake check consistency for 
that.

I'd offer to help, but I'm pretty pegged right now with grad school.  In 
the meantime, this should get tossed on the IndexMeasurementIdeas page. 
I'd do that, but I can't edit it.  I can't seem to get anything done.  :p
