There's nothing fundamentally command-liney about this tool so it would be great to make it accessible to users who aren't comfortable with command-line tools.

The interface of verify_dumps() would need to be enhanced with a mechanism to report the status incrementally. Or perhaps it would be better to refactor a separate function that would enumerate all the dumps to be verified in the provided folders and then have the (command-line and GUI) front-ends call a function to verify each dump individually.

It might be good to parse the chdman progress output so that we can represent that as a progress bar (although that chdman progress output is currently not reliable because it frequently exceeds 100% for some types of dump).
