Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-view-transitions-2] view-transition-name determined by element (#8320)

> Can you describe what the effect of this code is? As in, how would you explain it to a developer? I'm happy to ignore the syntax and naming but I have no idea what it does.

It would assign classes, id's and attributes onto the pseudo elements.

```css
::view-transition-new(.class-a[foo=bar]) {}

::view-transition-new(.class-b[foo~="bar"]) {}

::view-transition-new(.class-a:is([foo], [fooz])) {}
```

I really do not want to drag this too much off topic :)
But if the issue is that authors need more powerful tools to select view transitions then I do wonder why we aren't leaning into the full selector syntax.

This is mostly in response to magic string concatenation suggested in ` view-transition-name: "thumb-" var(--id);`

This is actually a key/value pair. `thumb` and `id` : `[thumb=id]`
