I thought about that, but then a few other things came to my mind:
- the correct place to have it would be in OsinfoInstallConfigParam
class, something like: osinfo_install_config_param_is_valid();
  - but then it'd require the user to have an OsinfoInstallConfigParam
object at the first place;
  - and the check should be done when creating the OsinfoInstallConfigParam;

Having a function in OsinfoInstallConfig seems weird to be, but if you
really prefer it I can go for it.
(I'm assuming we don't want to backport this patch, as introduce a new
function and depending on that would make the backport not viable).

It's consistently wrong. It's better than correct in one place and
wrong in another, no? :-)

Indeed.
