My belief is, if they really want this particular rule enforced, they need to hire a fourth umpire whose sole duty is to sit in the stands directly behind homeplate that can focus their attention on the pitching lane. In the field, there are the usual IP's to look for, plus runner(s) leaving early, plus watching the pitch/batter for anything unusual the PU might miss...etc.
