One thing that wasn’t clear to me here:  Does the “list” look like

    “dom0", “domU", “PCID on”

or 

    {dom0, domU, PCID on}

or

    {“dom0”, “domU”, “PCID on”}

?

Another question that occurs to me from asking this question: in a case like 
this, are we generally expecting to have options with spaces in them (like 
“PCID on”)? And/or, are we expecting the strings themselves to have quotes in 
them? If so, commands to manipulate these will start to look a little gnarly:

    xenhypfs write <path> “{\”dom0\”, \”PCID on\”}”

It seems like it would be nicer to be able to write:

    xenhypfs write <path> "{dom0, PCID-on}”

(Maybe this will be made more clear later in the series, just thought I’d share 
my thoughts / confusion here.)
