I don't think that's a necessity for all workflows. Just think about it, that would require all of us buying enterprise 520 or 528 byte sector drives to store the extra checksum information, and a whole new API up to the application level to confirm, point to point, that the data in the app is the data on the drive on writes, and the data on the drive is the data in the app on reads. It's not like T10/PI comes for free just by doing any one thing, it implies changes throughout the chain.
