It would seem like this could be achieved with some minor modifications 
of env.js (and possibly jquery.js) and clever use of closure, don't you 
think?

What I'd really like is jQuery-style XML querying and modification in 
ways that make sense on the server-side.

I'm still trying to get my head around Helma's application model. Can 
you explain what defineLibraryScope does and why it's necessary?
