Shameless plug: I wrote a simple KindleGen plugin that'll warn the user if the cover image wasn't defined or if the TOC and Start Reading guide items are missing. (It doesn't fix anything, though.)

The code has become a bit convoluted, but you might be able to use it as the basis for your own plugin and add custom checks and fixes.

As for writing a plugins yourself, it couldn't be easier thanks to the well-designed Plugin Runner framework; it offers convenience functions for pretty much anything you need to manipulate ePubs, and if you get stuck both DiapDealer and KevinH will usually come up with some helpful ideas.
