Immediately following this conversation I stopped by B&N to pick up this book:

http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/0596006349
XQuery by Priscilla Walmsley

It mainly goes over XPath 2.0 vs. 1.0 for most of the book, but overall it is a *great* insight into the topic. Also very good examples on FLWOR (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLWOR).

My first instinct would be to look for XPath support in my relational
db, and indeed MySQL does this:

But if a native-XML database can do it better or much more efficiently
for large datasets, then it is certainly worth investigating.
