I am wondering if it is possible (or whether it is a valid RFE) to support 
file checksums on ZFS (e.g. in the extended file attributes). ZFS also has 
block-level checksums - how complicated would it be to construct file-level 
checksums from that?

These checksums may be used, for example, to quickly discover whether two 
files are the same.
