Comment (by sivel):

 [attachment:20074.2.diff] moves the download verification to
 download_url()

 [attachment:20074.3.diff] is the result of a little thinking on how we
 could make download_url() flexible for developers to use it for download
 and download verification, regardless of being able to use Content-MD5.
 It adds a few additional arguments, to download_url() and allows the
 developer to specify either a bool to use the Content-MD5 header, or a
 string for either a md5 hash, or a URL to a MD5 file for verification.
