Christophe, This is the right group to submit your comment in support of maps in XQuery. Unfortunately, the requirement arrived too late for the feature to be included in XQuery 3.0 (including XPath 3.0), but we have already incorporated it as a requirement for the putative next version of XQuery. Thanks very much for your message!
