Hi,

I think it would be nicer to simply incorporate the check into
tools/make-directive-index.py. It already contains some checks on
<refentry> header correctness. Since it already parses all XML, you'd
get this check basically for free run-time wise, and it should be much
simpler to write and more robust, since you don't have to parse XML by hand [1].
