This is getting a long thread ;-)

And as LABEL success proves, the .gml gets read through OGR.

After a little fiddling around my question is:

Should Mapserver client at the query request time try to read the
already existing .gml or request a new one to the server. From my web
logs it appears the Mapserver client issues an identical request for
the .gml always, regardless whether he gets a normal or query request.
Is this OK ? The returned .gml are the same, but which one is read?

Done. Nothing.
