It should remain Content-MD5. Having more generality just complicates things on both ends, because support for a new digest algorithms won't even appear simultaneously on the server and client side. Not that it's even important. In practice, it's gonna remain MD5 for a real long time, if not forever (in terms of how long the protocol version itself is gonna live). If you do want to start using some other alg, you're more than welcome to use some other Content-Foo-Bar: header. The protocol spec has never disallowed new headers from being added.
