The ability to perform an XPath query server-side using EF is the one thing that is preventing our project's components from integrating seamlessly. Instead, we're having to construct queries manually with string builders to get this functionality, and it's proving troublesome to say the least!

It is very hard to believe that Entity Framework doesn't support SQL Server XML Datatype and doesn't seems any sign of getting that included in future release. I strongly feels that this is one of very important feature.

I like this too but I see it more like scenario for custom converters where you load XML/string and instead of loading it to string property you will provide custom converter to fill an object.

I would really like this feature, for an application, where the end consumer will have the need to save some, for me, yet unknown data in the DB. The data will be described runtine, so saving in dynamic XML xolumns would make my day a lot easier.
