IMO having a check is interesting, as the dependency between
Sphinx and docutils is high. Yet, with the testing script, this may
not be needed, provided that we run it to check if changes at Sphinx
extensions won't cause regressions. Still, the dependency check
at test_doc_build.py is not complete.

Anyway, if you prefer, don't pick this one. We can revisit it later
when needed.

Thanks,
Mauro
