I'm aware that there is currently no active editor for the spec (unless someone has since taken over from Hixie), but could the CSS WG please at least discuss this issue and find a resolution for it? I would prefer the solution I proposed above to be accepted because it would make it easier to resolve the issue in Selectors API and it would also allow a more sensible solution to be used in XBL. But either way, an answer would allow me to proceed with an appropriate solution. -- Lachlan Hunt http://lachy.id.au/
