The "Include in memory balancing" checkbox appears to be designed to resolve a 
bit of multi-variable issue: how memory settings and memory balancing settings 
are displayed/stored/implemented.

e.g. if I want a VM to have a static memory amount (and also not expect memory 
things to be adjusted by qubes memory management while the VM is running), I 
need to both set min and max to the same as well as explictly disable 
meminfo-writer.

The "Include in memory balancing" checkbox polices the memory settings and 
*almost* polices the meminfo-writer setting, but there's a coverage gap if 
meminfo-writer isn't already on the services list. To close the circle, the 
"Include in memory balancing" checkbox should also add meminfo-writer service 
to the service list of services and then explicitly disable meminfo-writer (if 
the meminfo-writer service is missing when the "Include in memory balancing" 
checkbox was checked).

Does that make sense?
