Native XML support

Feature Requests
#1

I often have to work with queries that return XML files.
It would be nice to have native support for XML functionality, such as:

  • XPath selection
  • SQL for XML (like there is SQL for JSON)

Currently I have to use DOMParser and other libraries to handle it, which makes it a lot more painful than working with JSON.

I'd vote this up. I know XML is considered as being outdated by modern standards (so why bother) but many slow-moving enterprise applications use things like SOAP and XML to communicate - and it's not going away.
Anything that Retool can do to mask complexity like this for organisations like ours will add weight to its application and adoption.
