 https://wordpress.org/plugins/developers/readme-validator/ is a useful
 tool. But when you have multiple people contributing to your plugin, it
 would be nice for validation of changes to the readme to be done by
 automated CI instead of having to have people visit that webpage.

 An API endpoint for validating a readme seems like the best option to
 achieve that. A wp-cli command or other standalone tool could also work,
 but since the validation needs to check taxonomies and users on
 wordpress.org anyway an API would seem to be more straightforward.

 Thanks!
