Great! Thank you!

@NoQ saw quite a few crashes during evaluation, right?

Well, yeah, it depends on how do you define things. If we define reports as "bugs", then I guess this checker already does not find bugs, but best-practices violations.
Then it can be argued whether "best practice" should be extended to include all the memory reachable through pointers.
