 It should be pretty straight forward, but there is a question about
 how/when to enable the checksumming because we don't want it to always be
 enabled.  It would be most helpful if we were able to get an initial chunk
 of data (for mime typing) prior to enabling the checksumming.

 I would *like* this to happen for 1.6, but if we don't come up with a good
 way to do it it doesn't matter too much since this feature will also be
 deprecated by the file analysis revisions that I proposed so if there
 isn't an obvious way to do it, let's skip it.
