That is one possible approach, but I don't think that documenting _all_ the modeling checkers is necessary here. Only a few of the modeling checkers have user-visible config options, while the rest are purely internal implementation details.

Also, I think in the future we should move towards completely hiding the modeling checkers and disconnecting the user-facing config options from them. If you document them, please include a warning message that "These modeling checkers are implementation details, they may be renamed or hidden in the future."
