Lets not even talk about XQuery. Do we talk about SQL in systems that have

even write a line of SQL if they had too (they'd argue, of course, that they
don't).

You're right - check out JPA, using say Hibernate as the implementation.
Just annotate your pojos and it automagically takes care of
persistence without needing a single line of SQL - it really is that
good.

I think it's amazing, and I could imagine the same annotation approach
working well for persisting your objects to XML too.
