MD5 sums of the various installers??

Is there a way to have the MD5sums of the various installers (those that are full installers not preloaders) and a way to confirm the sums are correct to prevent
%App% download is corrupt type problems?

the md5 sums are already

the md5 sums are already available on each app page in the Download Details part of it titled md5 hash (for the geeks):

Nope

Most people have no need of MD5s, so it's complete noise to them. The MD5s are automatically used by the updater and upcoming app directory, which is their primary purpose.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
