Hello,

Also, something else to think about is that, under certain conditions, this info could potentially be passed along via HTTP headers.

Maybe something like:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Link: < urn:sha1:dRDPBgZzTFq7Jl2Q2N/YNghcfj8=>; rel="hash"

Hello,

Aren't URNs already being very commonly used for hashes.  For example...

  urn:sha1:dRDPBgZzTFq7Jl2Q2N/YNghcfj8=

  urn:md5:FNG4c6MJLdDEY1rcoGb4pQ==

  urn:kzhash:0bf4c9a50c1058fb6887ad0419ecfc06dc192c69163ea2c45c632dab1cab1e1fbd6fbf1e

  urn:tiger:tree:ZAJPZOPES4YGIPNHLHDQHD5FHSAFSPIYG7IOO3Y

  urn:bitprint:QLFYWY2RI5WZCTEP6MJKR5CAFGP7FQ5X.VEKXTRSJPTZJLY2IKG5FQ2TCXK26SECFPP4DX7I

Perhaps it would be good to keep with that format.

How about a hash attribute for all elements that link to external files (a, img, etc.)?

It would allow you to pass an MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, or other hash to a user-agent for automatic comparison with the linked file.

I'd suggest a format where the hash algorithm is listed, followed by a forward slash and then the hash itself

Examples:
hash="MD5/9e107d9d372bb6826bd81d3542a419d6"
hash="SHA-1/2fd4e1c6 7a2d28fc ed849ee1 bb76e739 1b93eb12"
hash="SHA-256/d7a8fbb3 07d78094 69ca9abc b0082e4f 8d5651e4 6d3cdb76 2d02d0bf 37c9e592"
