 Replying to [comment:9 ioerror]:
 > I wonder - would it be possible to make a very small stub installer that
 embeds all of the sha1sum hashes into it and fetches everything as
 expected? If so, putting that up on a secure download page seems like an
 absolute win for everyone.


 That's an interesting thought.  It would take some work, but it'd be
 possible to do.

 My priority (and all I have time for right now) is to address the
 outstanding issues; this may be something to think about later.
