When my project is licensed with the Apache-2.0 license, I want to be able to check its dependencies' licenses against the ASF's 3rd Party License Policy, so that problematic upstream licenses are brought to my attention for further manual investigation.

While this policy is specifically designed for projects hosted by the Apache Software Foundation (which my project may not ever be hosted by), it is a good general source of license compatibility information, and anything it flags is likely to be problematic for non-ASF hosted Apache-2.0 licensed projects too.
