While your suggestion is the preferred way to handle this (but creates extra work for brainslayer, which is not so great) in the meantime I have posted the md5sum hashes that I get for all the v23 SP1 firmwares on the wiki here:
If a couple more people were to confirm that they get the same results, then the wiki hashes would provide roughly equivalent assurance that the files you download are not corrupted.

Probably not so much work - it's one time work to add few lines to compilation script to calculate MD5 sums. Everything is done on Linux so MD5 tool is already there. So I hope BS will do it at least for official (final) releases.
May be the download manager interface can generate a file in each directory with MD5SUMs, each time that files are updated or uploaded. Or easier just clickin a button on file administration area.
Are those hashes already obsolete? Unzipping the standard and voip archives and hashing with the windows hasher linked on the site, I get these (repeated calls to the exe removed for clarity):

Well, I was impatient, so I flashed the voip_generic.bin package anyway with no problems. So I guess this stands as a note that the md5sums in the wiki are apparently incorrect.

I've updated hashes for SP2 on the Wiki. I downloaded and unpacked the files at two different sites, then generated checksums and compared the sets to make sure they matched. Please reply here if there are any discrepancies.
However, as the Wiki mentions, I'm just some guy on the internet. It might be more secure if a developer or other designated party signed the checksums with a PGP key or something similar. (example)
The DD-WRT v23 SP2 Special is a modified v23 SP2 that has added the feature to limit individuals daily downloads and other features.
It is sold through "DD-WRT / NewMedia-NET GmbH Online Shop" . So you can't just download it without first paying for it. Thanks for the offer though.
I thought I was to get an email with support info for this version of DD-WRT but nothing has come so far.
