CheckPoint files should be saved as XML. This will make
them easier to parse. Actual file snapshots could be
encoded into the XML using Base64 (or perhaps a more
efficient encoding standard).

This may have some implications for memory foot-print
so the loading and saving mechnism will either take alot
of memory or do some funky things with temporary files
and streams - I prefer the latter, but the former would
be OK for prototyping purposes.
