Instead of using javascript, have you considered using eXist as a native backend XML 
database?

http://exist.sourceforge.net/

It is XQuery 1.0 / XPath 2.0 compatible.

There is an old tutorial in the OpenLaszlo forum explaining how to connect OpenLaszlo client 
to eXist database.

Try out the eXist sandbox first .....

http://demo.exist-db.org/sandbox/sandbox.xql

returns to OpenLaszlo are all XML format.
