Re: [csswg-drafts] [selectors] Child & descendant pseudo element combinators (#7346)

I'd like to bring up @bradkemper’s response to that old thread here:

> I disagree. I don't find it "much more understandable." In fact, I think having "::foo" as one chunk of text (no spaces) makes it much more clear that "foo" is not looking a <foo> element in the markup, but is instead something special (an element created by the CSS and then selected). 
> 
> It might be a little more clear if there is a space *before* the "::". But honestly, I didn't have any problem parsing "p::before:hover::marker" in my mind. Because I have learned what "::" means already, and learning it with no spaces wasn't hard.
