Yes it is. If you refer to a freenet URI via a mailing list or some other
medium, sometimes it would be worthwhile to refer to the CHK of the file, which
a) can be most easily and quickly fetched from freenet, b) can be instantly
inserted into another web page say without any trace of origin, c) *always*
refers to *exactly* the same file. These properties are very useful sometimes.
