Emacspy currently does not validate licenses of Python modules.
I have plan to add hi-level Elisp API on top of existing C/cython functions.
Making such license validation would be easy to do inside this hi-level API.
I assume malicious users trying to bypass validation are not concern.

Sure. I pushed https://notabug.org/813gan/emacspy
