Description of problem:
Feature request: Include checksums for individual source packages in the spec file. When packaged into a source RPM, it is probably not as important. It would be most useful to use with `spectool' to validate a source file downloaded from a URL.

Additional info:

Fink, a Mac OSX packager, has the following format:

Source2: http://chemistry.ucsc.edu/~wgscott/xtal/xtalfink/XCCPJiffy-custom.gz
Source2-MD5: 21568dd2475505929573a3fd452c538f

The MD5 could also just be embedded in a comment if there is not enough interest in creating a formal MD5 tag.
