A-path could be interesting to compare to RQL: http://www.sitepen.com/blog/2010/11/02/resource-query-language-a-query-language-for-the-web-nosql/
[Update march 2025: the RQL site seems to be gone. Nowadays basing alternative querying on the recently standardized “GQL” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_Query_Language would likely be more interesting, see, e.g. hints in openEHR discussion posts like https://discourse.openehr.org/t/demographic-model-improvements/1645/48?u=erik.sundvall ]
