Re: [selectors] :in-viewport() psuedoclass for scroll-based animations & lazy-loading

I would like to vouch for this. I already use waypoints.js to manually
track everything that is in view so I can pause/remove animations that
aren't visible. I do this for performance reasons and others do, too. It's
in the wild already. Would love to see it official.
