rpmlint already points out suid files. I don't think that a specific guideline is needed, a word of caution would be nice. We should expect maintainers to know what they are doing when packaging suid stuff. I personally maintain pmount which is, I hope, rightfully suid.
If we want somebody to explicitly examine all suid instances they yes, we do need a guideline.

Also keep in mind that not everyone runs rpmlint after each commit/change. Some only use it when submitting/reviewing new packages.
