Actually todays Mozilla XBL spec uses XPath for that (although the Mozilla XBL implementation uses only bare names); the sXBL spec was hesitating between XPath and CSS Selectors (most implementors of sXBL favouring XPath); and XBL2 uses CSS selectors. And the most usual case is to create markup - HTML or SVG - rather than just CSS styling.
