In an ideal world - checksums would be an perfectly viable way to compare
files. However, practically - they can't be well supported by the collectstatic
API.
While md5 may be somewhat common - it is neither universal nor standard. For
cloud based storage backends to support a comparison metric other than
modification times for use by collectstatic, they would need to provide that
value as a remote/api call, it would do no good if the only way to support this
involved retrieving the remote object to get a hash on it (even if you had
drastically asymetrical bandwidth - this is just poor design).
