You can specify you want to insert/modify a record rather than 
completely replace it. There is no 'get' support; you always get a full 
record. You can also only match first-level children, i.e. you can match 
roster items, but not a roster group. Anything which matches is deleted, 
and the data passed along is appended as a child to the root node. 
Finally, the syntax is a very small subset of XPath, and differs a bit - 
there is no leading '/' (I'm not quite sure what the behavior is if 
there is one) so you always start from children of the root node.

Other than this, XDB is completely document-centric (as opposed to being 
data-centric).
