This is a community project so everybody can contribute, there are no
rules or restrictions.

My plan is to not add more APIs manually, I would like to create
the generator ASAP.  However I would wait with using this binding
before there is a stable release, the API of this binding may change.

Please try to forget that there is some libvirt RPC :) that's only for
internal communication.  The create/list API returns a path to D-Bus
object, it's not a simple UUID.  The path can be used to get a D-Bus
object or interface.  Check the "test/test_domain.py" how the objects
or interfaces are used.  For example, Domain has a list of properties
which counts Name, UUID, Id, etc.
