Re: [csswg-drafts] [selectors-4] Allow * before a type selector (#8253)

One way this proposal is fragile is if the user accidentally puts a space after the `*`, e.g. `* div` instead of `*div` (I can already see people I know adding the spaces because they think the `*div` was a mistake).

And if putting a `*` in front of everything is acceptable, why wouldn't putting a `@` in front of everything be acceptable? The advantage to using an `@` is that it's _already_ the universal mechanism in CSS to indicate something special.
