I like your other scripts, so I had a look. That seems so damn complex
at first glance! Maybe you want to improve your "readme" by some simple
examples of "mise en oeuvre": assume I have a qubes machine and a
backup-harddrive in my hand. What would be the steps to do? Can you
stock your backup in a luks-container? Since you use "streams" can
(can't?) there be a -whatever cipher- in the middle of your stream
treatment?
I did not get these informations from your text within reasonable time.
Maybe I am stupid, but maybe I am not alone with that :)
Under Requirements & Setup there is a brief example of initializing a
Wyng archive and adding a volume.
I don't yet have a walk through specifically for Qubes, but I have a
draft howto that is geared toward a regular Linux system:

Deciding how to use it in dom0 depends on several factors, such as
whether you need to add encryption to the archive (Wyng v0.2 does not
encrypt data). The Readme suggests a general method for Qubes that sets
up a net-accessible encrypted container, but you can also simply mount a
LUKS volume from sys-usb local storage (i.e. attach a sys-usb partition
to dom0, then in dom0 format/use it as a LUKS volume).
