I wasn't referring to the interface between the client and the repo.
That is a machine-to-machine interface. I was referring to the user and
programming interfaces, e.g., pkg(1) and pkgsend(1) and the
pkg.client.api module.

P.S. I've always been curious what will happen when we run into the
mathematical certainty of having two different file contents that hash
to the same value. At that time, I certainly hope that the use of hashes
is not such a core part of the design.
There's a much higher probability that there are bugs in IPS :-).
Seriously, two files that have the same size and hash but different
contents will be paper worthy.
