Rather than add even more specialised selectors how about adding one based on 
counters ":nth-counter" could be used to select anything anyway the developer 
choices. For counting depth you would use :before {counter-increment: depth 
1} and :after { counter-increment: depth -1 }. It could also very easily 
replace the existing :nth-of-type and page selection.
