That's right. However, the selector is CSS3 Selectors only, if I  
follow the reference in the current XBL2 draft. I think it would be  
great if XPath selectors were also accepted for bindings, if only  
because XPath is well understood by browsers out there today (well,  
at least WebKit, Gecko-based browsers, Opera and Internet Explorer)  
and is a core XML technology which XBL is poised to become too.

Also, XPath is already a W3C recommendation.
