I think a couple of those features are pretty low priority:
- I don't see the point of collective queries on NodeLists.
Are there any references for the proposal?
Otherwise I can't think of any useful queries that can't already be
achieved with a single querySelectorAll().
- Filtering NodeLists is trivial once we get matchesSelector().

Hi,
I'm planning to look at beginning work on Selectors API v2 soon to
add a number of requested features that didn't make it into the first
version. This e-mail is a summary of what is being considered, and is
intended to start discussion about which ones are really worth
focussing on, and how to ensure they address the use cases appropriately.
