It would be great if lintian could check the doc-base files sections.
Nevertheless we need to improve the doc-base section hierarchy first
to make it better fit to documentation needs. I don't think it should
be strictly bound to the menu's one. I gave my proposal at
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=37;bug=109431
(which isn't perfect though), and since nobody objected I'm going to
implement it in doc-base soon.
