Well, we'll be able to generalize some tags. I'm unsure about some other
tags, for example Orion's queries are expressed this way:
"$1 > = $myField AND $myOtherField > 5"
The $ syntax is nonstandard. In jboss the orderby part is a separate
element, in orion no, but you have the option to declare the whole query
statement or just the WHERE part. So, it's impossible (?) to find a
generalization here. But the sql-type should be ok, what else could it
be like? I don't know, maybe other contributors also can share some
thoughts with us!

My special thanks for WebsPhere support. I looked at it and the bnd/ext
part seems to be complete (and tested?).
