I'm not suggesting bloat here, Rik.  I think that, at the very least,
support for $('myns|whatever') is core stuff, and is doable without a lot
of code.  Since it's about the basic functionality of selection, I think
that it's one of the few things that *shouldn't* be a plugin.

I won't have time to actually take a crack at it for a few days, but I'd
appreciate it if someone could demonstrate just how much space such an
addition would take up.  I can't see it being more than like 10-15 lines
or so, but I've been wrong before.  :)
