Well having matchSingle and matchAll reply two different things is from
here hardly acceptable too... That means that a given code will have to
implement two different handlers depending on the queried set, first one
or all.

At least, make both methods reply a StaticNodeList please !

On scoped stylesheets :

   getElementsByTagName() is available on all Elements and matchAll()
   won't be allowed on Elements ??? While the former is a subcase of the
   latter ? Wow... Sorry, this is, from a DOM user point of view, VERY
   suboptimal
