However, I would like jQuery's CSS selector engine as a standalone library, sooo much easier than complex DOM lookups
CSS selector is built into all the browsers since IE8/FF3.5. The functions are element.querySelector and element.querySelectorAll. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc304119%28v=VS.85%29.aspx https://developer.mozilla.org/En/DOM/Document.querySelector If you need to support older browsers, I think jquery's engine is called Sizzle stand alone, but I just let it throw the method not found exception, and carry on without the javascript. It's not worth the size.
