Is there a reason to have identical interfaces called DocumentSelector 
and ElementSelector that are identical?  Would it not make sense to just 
define a NodeSelector or something and require Document and Element 
nodes to implement it?  The confromance requirement could be easily 
stated in terms of descendants of the Node in question in a way that 
would work for both Document and Element nodes...
