That's a very timely question :)   Here's the checklist for every new feature
to hit the master branch: https://criu.org/New_features_checklist

For the configuration files:

* code -- in there
* kernel feature check -- not required
* all 3 APIs -- I see the --config and --no-default-config options in CLI,
  but don't see them in RPC

* travis/jenkins job -- I haven't found :(

* man page -- the options are mentioned, but having a little bit more text in it would
  be nice, at least description of what "default config file" is and what's the file
  syntax
* wiki page -- this page (https://criu.org/CLI) doesn't have --config option on it

So once we have options in RPC, tests (Andrey, I think travis validation would be OK)
and wiki pages about the feature -- the feature will be ready to merge.
