This is correct for the chained selector strings but not for these 
unchained selectors,

.focusBlock *>header {
// style rules //
}
.focusBlock>* header {
// style rules //
}


with this HTML.


<div class="focusBlock">
   <header>...</header>
   <section>...</section>
   <footer>...</footer>
</div>
