I do something similar, but a *little* less complicated:
- login to the web
- navigate to the page
- view sourd
- select all
- copy
* paste into an already saved HTML file on my site (hidden but not login 
required)
* click on a link I have bookmarked to the validation page for the file 
I have pre-saved, something like this:
<http://validator.w3.org/check?charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&uri=http://www.mydomain.com/test.html>
