I often need to query an XML document without having to load it into a
native XML database. In a perfect world, I would simply load the document
into my editor, sprinkle some XQuery into the document, highlight the
portions I want to evaluate, then hit a key combination to view a new
window with the results. The whole operation should take all of a few
seconds for a large class of XML documents and queries.
Thankfully, this is indeed a perfect world. And, I'm an Emacs user.
