Already filed a feature request.

I think the best way is that we create for eg. archive.tar.bz2
a file archive.tar.bz2.md5sum. This was we can easily automate
the task of checking every file while at the same time decoupling
it from one single ftp maintainer who would create on big md5sum
file for all files.
