Also you're not always in your IDE. For instance I recently tried to change
something experimentally in the AS code base, just using my text editor
(no, it was not vi ;). Then CS can really be in the way for
compilation/tests. So I think it makes most sense to have it in the
"verify" phase.

True, but sometimes you might want to ignore the rules.

Not sure, I don't have any check style plugin enabled in Idea. And again,
it
is a question of IDE vs build. Wether and how you configure your IDE to
conform to the coding standard is one thing and where and how you check
the standard as part of the build is another.
