My colleague and friend Donald Kossmann used to tell his students :
“there are two wrong things with the name XQuery: the “X” and the “Query”.

The “X” because it’s not only for XML, it’s for semi-structured data in 
general, and
the “Query” because it’s not only a query language, it’s a general data 
processing language.
