Description

**[Roman Ivanov](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=romani)** opened **[MCHECKSTYLE-312](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-312?redirect=false)** and commented

Report example - http://vladlis.github.io/reports/static_check/orekit_before/
If link does not exists, see attached image.

Problem: Custom checks are not show in Rules section, that make it hard to understand how Check was configured to report that amount of violations.

Expected: Rules section should contain all checks that are used in config and there options(parameters).
