The checksum is a special field currently only created by the Picasa client. You're making a good point. It might be helpful for other clients to be able to rely on the same checksum for each photo regardless of how it got uploaded. Feel free to create a feature or bug request at http://code.google.com/p/gdata-issues/issues/list?can=2&q=label:API-Picasa&sort=-id&colspec=API%20ID%20Type%20Status%20Priority%20Stars%20Summary That way you help us not forgetting this and you are going to get notified when it gets implemented.
