As Richard reminded me in another thread, both metadata
and DDT can contain checksums, hopefully of the same data
block. So for deduped data we may already have a means
to test whether the data or the checksum is incorrect...
Incdentally, the problem also seems more critical for
the deduped data ;)

Just a thought...
