[pde-build-dev] headless build-config validators? 
Yesterday I put a bug on PDEB regarding a case where a malformed
plugin was silently deleted. Pascal replied

which piques my interest: given how inscrutable PDEB's error messages
tend to be, anything I can do to pre-scan a build configuration and
fail-fast it Sounds Good To Me. But I'd prefer to do validation
scans headlessly, not through UI. I'm wondering, are there headless
tools or API for scanning a build config, e.g. the build.properties
present in the set of plugins one fetches?
