I think it does, though perhaps in a more limited way than you (or I)
are envisioning.
MODS is often embedded in METS, for example, and this recently
announced project wraps MODS within an XML representation of the FRBR
(and using MADS for authority data).

It uses eXist for the backend, and so presumably XQuery for the logic.
