Re: [web-annotation] Make Selectors available for the wide world?

Here's a proposal:

`SpecificResource` should be renamed `ResourceSelector`. All it does 
is select a whole resource. As a selector, it can be further 
constrained with `subSelector`.

Of course, this means that you have to be able to attach style and 
state to a selector, but I've argued for that before anyway. I mean, 
why shouldn't we be able to say that we expect to style the quote, but
 not the paragraph that contains it? Right now, we're limited by 
saying that the whole target is to be styled regardless of how deeply 
we can resolve its selector chain.

As someone who's implemented clients, I would very much love to be 
able to say that the quote should be highlighted while the paragraph 
containing it should have a note icon next to it.
