I think we are not understanding each other fully here. 

As far as I know, and judging by reports from other people, checksumming
is exactly that simple way of checking the validity of a package. If the
package is only partially downloaded it will not validate and will be
removed and downloaded again.

So if you want this functionality you have to enable checksumming.

If you do, but then it doesn't work, tell me what happens and I will try
to fix it.
