A bit like the parameter to Element#up, the selector would define where to 
stop. Eg:

<html>
<body>
<div class="content">
    <p>
        blah
        <span id="interesting-content">
            not really so interesting
        </span>
    </p>
</div>
</body>
</html>

$('interesting-content').ancestors('div#content')

returns:

[<p>, <div#content>]

Not:

[<p>, <div#content>, <body>, <html>]

Because body and hmtl usually aren't that useful anyway.

Does this sound useful? Think of any other refinements?
