Could you elaborate on how that issue applies here? It seems fairly 
generic to me. I can;t see how it applies in this specific case, 
since neither XAML nor XUL seems to be using CSS selectors, just CSS 
properties. Is there some aspect of XUL or XAML that hasn't yet been 
demonstrated in the examples here that does uses CSS selectors?
