this is not a surprise... it is right in the docs:

> http://docs.jquery.com/Selectors/multiple#selector1selector2selectorN
> "Note order of the dom elements in the jQuery object aren't
> necessarily identical."

BUT, I need to match a handful of things and add to the first match in
the DOM, e.g.:
$('h2,h4,p,ul').eq(0).addClass('found-it');

unfortunately, it looks for all h2 THEN all h4 THEN all p THEN all ul,
instead of scanning the dom for matches in the order of the DOM...

So my question is: how would I achieve this: find the first match for
multiple selectors, as it appears in the DOM?

Thanks
