If we merge DocumentSelector and ElementSelector into simply

DocumentFragments.
Not necessarily. I'm not advocating that all Nodes be castable to
NodeSelector. Just that whatever nodes querySelector(All) work on are.
We'd also get it for attribute nodes which might be less desirable.
I don't think it's desirable at all.
Though we could say that the interface is only required to be
implemented on Documents, Elements and DocumentFragments.
That would be my suggestion, yes. ;)
If we could get a :scope pseudo-element that would be an excellent
solution IMHO, and would be great with scoped stylesheets as has been
pointed out elsewhere in the last few days.
Agreed.
That said, is there interest in getting this spec to CR quickly, since
it seems some UAs are planning to ship it in the near future even though
it's a Working Draft? Or are said UAs willing to make changes to their
implementation after shipping as the spec changes?
The alternative, defining another set of methods would be something that
we could do, but that solution feels a lot less appealing.
Again, agreed.
