Would this require storing the checksums in the database or would this be
done dynamically on page history views? There's a related bug about
implementing checksums of page text into MediaWiki. Some people aren't
thrilled with the idea.[1]

There's a broader question about whether page histories should be "pure" or
not. The history of what happened to a page might be unsightly, but
tampering with it (or the public's view of it) can be dangerous.
