I'm not sure if I understand you correctly, but if by css:vcard you
mean a parameter that looks for cascading style sheet selectors (in
reference to the class name that has 'hCard" as a value) then, class
names aren't CSS, they're in fact HTML.

Sure. I was just informally writing about the topic, not creating a
spec. That said, "class:vcard" would be a better way of expressing the
selector (the word "selector" referring to a search query modifier and
not any thing else.
