Thanks, this looks more powerfull. Support CSS, XPath and XQuery. Maybe I could learn a bit of XQuery when I have a use case for it :)

Well, here’s your first lesson then: if you prepend (: to your comment it will become a valid XQuery document!

(: XQuery comments are marked by mirrored smilie faces, like this. :)

Well, yes, but also no

An empty query is not valid. There needs to be something besides the comment

Nice - I've been writing XQuery for years and I had no clue

Everything that isn't a (: happy comments :) is a FLWOR:

  <users>
  {
    for $user in //users
    let $comments = //comment[@uid = $user/@id]
    where count($comments) > 0
    order by $user/lastName, $user/firstName
    return <user id="{ $user/@id }">
      <name>{ concat($user.firstName, " ", $user.lastName) }</name>
      <comments count="count($comments)">
      {
        for $c in $comments return <comment id="{ $c/@id }" />
      }
      </comments>
    </user>
  }
  </users>

It's the bastard child of SQL and XPath 2 lol.

I kinda liked XQuery, but it seemed to never have got much traction.
