The format should be defined in the PEP 438. If we adopt the hash tag extensions, then the URL fragment will just start with the md5= part and not necessarily also end with it. pip and easy_install will then have to implement the extension mechanism; and package authors will have to decide whether or not they want to stay compatible to versions of those tools that don't have these implemented.
