Offhand, you're missing td, span, body to cover any sort of decent range
of images.... But yes, much less thorough, indeed. And hard to get
"right".
True.
On the other hand, this seems extremely complex to author and not
something most authors would come up. :-)
That's possible, but I would think that the authoring of the query would
be by one of the various toolkits, and the author would call
getSVGImages() or some such.
Ok.
If this is the kind of scenario we're trying to get NSResolver defined
for it does not be worth it.
Last I checked, the main envisioned use of the querySelector* APIs was
to speed up existing queries toolkits do. Might be worth asking them
what they think would be useful.

XML unless all names are lowercase.)

I agree that asking them explicitly would be good though, but it seems
like so far the need was not compelling enough to implement it. (And
libraries generally have gone to extreme lengths to implement other things
not natively supported by browsers or not available cross browser.)
