Imho the mistake here is, that it is not documented in the guidelines. If
there are secret important issues that need to be checked, where should the

It is not secret, it is specific for a package or a class of packages.
It comes from the brain. This is especially true for the integration
issues that cannot all be in the guidelines. As a side note, if there
was only things that are in the guidelines and can be put on a check
list, packaging and reviewing packages would be very boring ;-)
Even simple items can be easily forgotten, if it is a PITA to find
them all in
the huge collection of Guidelines.
A template won't help, but removing things from the guidelines or
arranging the guidelines to be easier to read.
