[Feature Request] Automatic detection of unaccepted LaTeX packages

[suhara]

Hello,

I often have my submissions (especially camera-ready versions) sent back from a publisher because the latex files were unable to compile or violate their style.

The most common issue is that I used LaTeX packages that are not accepted by the publisher/conference. In fact, some institutions publish their own lists of (un)accepted LaTeX packages.

For example,
https://www.acm.org/publications/taps/accepted-latex-packages

I believe it's very helpful if Overleaf has a function to display warning (or even error) messages whenever the user uses packages not in the accepted lists or in the unaccepted list.

Additionally, it would be very helpful if the community can share and maintain the list of (un)accepted LaTeX packages for each venue. For example, it could be coupled with each Overleaf template.

Thanks!
