I recently worked on an Oracle based system that use this 'functionality'.
Most of it was achieved because Oracle has an imbedded JVM, so you can use
Java code in Stored Procedures / Triggers (thus use Java XML API's), but it
also has some extensions to the Oracle API its self.

More info about the Oracle implementation can be found....
