NACK. From libvirt.h.in:

typedef enum {
    VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_CURRENT = 0,      /* Affect current domain state.  */
    VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_LIVE    = 1 << 0, /* Affect running domain state.  */
    VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_CONFIG  = 1 << 1, /* Affect persistent domain
state.  */
    /* 1 << 2 is reserved for virTypedParameterFlags */
} virDomainModificationImpact;

typedef enum {
    /* 1 << 0 is reserved for virDomainModificationImpact */
    /* 1 << 1 is reserved for virDomainModificationImpact */
    VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING_OKAY = 1 << 2,
} virTypedParameterFlags;

Neither enum contains the other (rather, both enums merely ensure that
they reserve values so as not to overlap), and I think listing both
enums is appropriate for the documentation.

I think hunks like this actually lose information,

and while I agree that this hunk is trying to improve things, it didn't
go all the way in making the improvement.

I'll send a v2 counter-proposal shortly.
