Think of the XML API as another way to access the CLI. Anything that does/doesn't required a commit on the CLI will behave the same way over the XML API. Essentially the commands that you type into the XML API are the actual commands that the CLI is issueing; if you enable debug on the cli then you will see after every command entry the command that was actually ran against the config.
