Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-selectors][css-namespaces] Lexical Scoping (#4061)

I mean, I guess what I'm saying is: why attach the namespace to an arbitrary attribute, instead of defining an attribute where one can attach (select) namespaces? I mean, I get that you're trying to use existing syntax, but I guess to me, this syntax is just hard to follow. It also clashes with libraries like Vue (and Ractive?) which use XML-namespace-like attributes to change attribute behaviors. Which of course was dangerous on their part, but...

I think also XML namespacing on an attribute isn't supposed to define the tree behaviors, is it? There just seem to be a lot of semantic and counter-intuitive oddities with this particular syntax direction.
