[Graveman-general] Request for feature: verify burn

I have used graveman a lot (with good results!), but one of the features from 
k3b that i still miss is the ability to verify the CD after burning.

* CD-RWs fail from time to time. It would be nice to verify the results of 
burning an ISO image. Arriving at somebodys house (who you promised to 
install linux) only to find that the setup media are defective is not funny.

some ideas on how to implement this can be found on 
http://troubleshooters.com/linux/coasterless.htm

* On data CD/DVDs, verifying the files on CD are the same as on disk is even 
more important. Broken backups can make a grown man cry. Yes, you can md5sum 
them yourself, but it is cumbersome when you have a lot of files and Graveman 
already has a list of the files.

I would like to help you guys implement these, but unless you need a 
python/perl coder (or a dutch translation?) i wouldn't be of much help. 

hope this helps you make graveman even better,
Benny
