db:open('factbook')/mondial/country [religions = 'Muslim'] (: yields 77 hits results :) [ethnicgroups = 'Greeks'] (: yields 2 hits results :)
→Index Rewritings
(: rewritten to :)
db:text('factbook', 'Shenzhen')/parent::name
</syntaxhighlight>
Multiple element names and query strings can be supplied in a path:
<syntaxhighlight lang="xquery">
//*[(ethnicgroups, religions)/text() = ('Jewish', 'Muslim')]
(: rewritten to :)
db:text('factbook', ('Jewish', 'Muslim'))/(parent::*:ethnicgroups | parent::*:religions)/parent::*
</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang="xquery">
(: rewritten to :)
db:text('factbook', 'Greeks')/parent::ethnicgroups/parent::country[religions = 'Muslim']
</syntaxhighlight>
If index access is possible within more complex FLWOR expressions, only the paths will be rewritten:
<syntaxhighlight lang="xquery">
for $country in //country
where $country/ethnicgroups = 'German'
order by $country/name[1]
return <country name='{ $country/@name }'/>
(: rewritten to :)
for $country in db:text('factbook', 'German')/parent::ethnicgroups/parent::country
order by $country/name[1]
return <country name='{ $country/@name }'/>
</syntaxhighlight>
