Don't we usually document types independently from their usage, so that
they aren't appearing in between the documentation for chardev-add and
its actual implementation?

Let's get that FIXME dealt with:

-> { "execute" : "chardev-add",
     "arguments" : { "id" : "foo",
                     "backend" : { "type" : "null" } } }
<- { "return": {} }

if I'm reading the spec correctly.  Or does it have to be more verbose?

-> { "execute" : "chardev-add",
     "arguments" : { "id" : "foo",
                     "backend" : { "type" : "null", "data" : {} } } }
<- { "return": {} }
