  Okay, this look okay, so I'm tempted to apply it (I will reread it though)
I still have a few comments:
   - the function comments for the entry points should probably be augmented
     a bit to explain the parameters, this is extremely flexible but a couple
     of line of explanations would help
   - the proxy entry points should be augmented, and the proxy sources too
     to allow the Get operation from a normal user
   - I don't think the python bindings can be automatically generated,
     and the conversions of the parameters to Python types should be looked at
     a bit IMHO.

  Using 'schedinfo' to set the parameters sounds a bit bizarre, I would expect
an info to be an output only.

  Sounds sensible to me.

 I use the following command to indent libvirt code:

paphio:~/libvirt -> cat ~/bin/cb
#!/bin/sh
indent -bad -bap -bbb -bli4 -br -ce -brs -cs -i4 -l75 -lc75 -nut -sbi4 -psl -saf -sai -saw -sbi4 -ss -sc -cdw -cli4 -npcs -nbc
paphio:~/libvirt -> 

  using GNU indent command.
