Hi all, I realize this is kind of late in the feedback process, but while
reading the syntax examples here I found myself pretty confused by the
meaning of the "to" keyword. Especially given that the tendency is to read
it as the English language sentence "Scope .foo to .bar", it seems to
introduce a meaning almost entirely at odds with what it's purpose is
(scope the styles TO .foo, EXCLUDING .bar rather than, e.g., "Scope .foo's
styles to .bar" or something similar)
Reading the explainer, it sounds like the way this syntax was arrived at
was pretty path dependant (building on the previous "from: x to: y" syntax)
Has the CSSWG considered any other keyword for this proposal, for example
maybe something like
@scope (.component) excluding (.bar) {
...
}
Again, sorry that this feedback is coming so late in the timeline, but
curious whether there were any other alternatives explored here.
And definitely second the opinion on the explainer! I don't think I would
have been able to figure out the usage of the "to (...)" clause without it
and it really made it clear why it was important and how it fit into the
overall design of the feature
