Yes, that would be a possibility. (I suppose that you mean 'an
'automatic' field like 'lastmodified'').

That could well be the way on which I'll implement it. Actually it would
be nice then if the field-type-definiton can accept parameters (in this
case, the field of which it must be check-sum). That is an issue which
must be sovled for 1.8, I think.

Indeed, but I suppose this possibility is astronomically small, if at
least we choose something like MD5 or so.

That does not matter, because when checking unique-keys beforehand (a
feature which is completely missing at the moment btw), you can simply
ignore security.
