Practically speaking it's only when you rip cds with either Exact Audio  
Copy or DBPowerAmp.

Technically it could quite easily do so, but someone would have to program  
the functionality. It's possible that it could be done from a plugin, but  
that depends on how much data is exposed seeing as you need to crc every  
frame of audio. I'll investigate it, I was planning to write an app to  
verify flac rips anyway but if I can use Picard that would save me a lot  
of work.
