Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: dvd-slideshow

The preflight check detects many problems before too much time is wasted with a 
full run, but unfortunately far from all errors. 
Apparently, simple spelling errors and typoes like "kenbruns" or "Kenburns" 
instead of "kenburns" or "50%%" instead of "50%" are not detected during 
preflight check, nor are illegal combinations like a "wipe" command following a 
"background".

It would be desireable for the preflight check to catch virtually all errors 
quickly.
Maybe the code could be changed such that preflight check runs through its 
normal schedule "simply" with all real action disabled (by some $preflightcheck 
flag) and e.g. only "simulating" the existence of all created images.
