Maybe you can add a /validateonly flag to the wpkg.js or something? :)

I have moved all my individual package/profile xml files to a separate 
share where I create/edit the files. Then I run my merge script before 
the merged file is copied to the live share. It would be great to be 
able to run the validate with wpkg before the files are copied.

I will try your perl script Mi. The problem I have had with previous 
perl script I found when searching is that the modules have been missing 
in Active perl for windows.
