I don't like this syntax. It would logically match only if #bar is
ancestor of :root which clearly isn't the case. I'd prefer
#foobar:root-matches(#foo>#bar)
{ /* Previously #foo>#bar / #foobar */
background-color: red;
}
This pseudo-element would be defined as
:root-matches(SELECTOR) - matches elements if the SELECTOR would
match any element (the SELECTOR is matched against the whole document).
I've no idea how this could be implemented with high performance.
