This plugin is great. It would be nice to have also a light syntax checker while editing latex code, in the spirit of vim/syntastic or emacs/flycheck.

That would be great. Unfortunately, I don't see myself working on that any time soon. Pull requests are welcome, though, as are any questions about implementation.

That said, I wonder if a better solution would be a general syntax-checker plugin, which could be given a TeX mode. The only example in the plugin repository seems to be Rubocop, for Ruby. I don't know how easy that would be to extend to other languages.

A related project would be to parse the output of the compilation to highlight errors in the source code.
