Common Sense.

I think this is where common sense needs to prevail. I do feel that kids need to have their shirts tucked in, but I tell them this only for their benefit. If it is not tucked in the opponent might get an advantage easier. If you tell any coach that, then they really do not make a big deal out of it. But just tell them to tuck in their shirts and move on. Now I do not let girls (it happens in girls games more than boys) tuck or alter their shirts at the shoulder. The tucking at the shoulder can make it harder at the shoulder and could cause injury to someone that runs into it.

Now things like logos and the size of the lettering and number, I am not going to try to figure out if the jersey is illegal or not. All that I want is a number on the front and back so that I can read it. Other than that I really do not care. But this has never been a problem, unless you are talking about below varsity games, and there I could really give a damn.
