Hi, During a discussion about xml:id I was about to make the throw away comment that you could use querySelector to easily work around lack of support for xml:id, but on checking it turns out that's not the case. querySelector, it seems, cannot be used to select on a specific namespace, since you can only use namespace prefixes in selectors, and querySelector does not resolve prefixes. Maybe the working group could consider adding some sort of "non-prefix" namespace support to selectors for the sake of querySelector/querySelectorsAll, something like: [url("http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace")|id="foo"] or: [namespace("http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace")|id="foo"] or: [ns("http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace")|id="foo"] I imagine this would be much more widely useful than just for xml:id of course.
