Here's my updated counterproposal for a backup API.

Actually, since I'm taking two XML documents, this should really have a
VIR_DOMAIN_BACKUP_VALIDATE flag for comparison of the XML against the
schema.
/**
* virDomainCheckpointCreateXML:
* @domain: a domain object
* @xmlDesc: description of the checkpoint to create
* @flags: bitwise-OR of supported virDomainCheckpointCreateFlags

*/
virDomainCheckpointPtr
virDomainCheckpointCreateXML(virDomainPtr domain, const char *xmlDesc,
unsigned int flags);
Ditto. And this was copied from virDomainSnapshotCreateXML, which
should also gain a VALIDATE flag.
