Hmm... that's an interesting idea... what sort of query did you have in mind? xml:lang support in RDF query is a hairball... I don't think cwm[1] does it at all (let alone any sort of support for hierarchy); I went around for weeks claiming[2] that nobody does it, and then finally I got somebody to say "we do". Sesame or something, I think. I have no idea whether XML Query works as you expect. I'd appreciate if you (or Martin or Liam or Michael or Massimo or anybody else, for that matter) would check.
