This might be true in CSS, but when jQuery sees something like "#myid", it
turns that into document.getElementById("myid") which is very fast.

I can't say for sure, but I think that if jQuery saw something like
"div#myid", it would do document.getElementsByTagName("div") and then
document.getElementById("myid")
