Comment # 8 on bug 10687 from
I have already changed my coloring rule, thanks for the input on that. 

What I am trying to say is that a checksum of 0x00000000 is different than if
the checksum was a non-zero number and wrong. 

On one hand you should probably follow the standards on how you handle this,
but on the other hand it just means I am going to turn off checksum validation
and if there was a problem with a checksum I would miss it. It would just be
nice if a zero checksum returned some sort of warning about checksum
offloading, but a non zero number returned an error that said the checksum was
wrong.
