I like it. A checklist is a very lightweight and efficient way for a team to codify a list of objective things that they feel must be done and checked for every pull-request. Once that's done, it should be considered good to merge regardless of peoples subjective opinions about the code. This avoid drawn out and opinionated debates about the code dragging down productivity. That isn't to say a bit of debate isn't a good thing, it just need not be the main thing.
