Uh?!
1) $$ boils is:
return Selector.findChildElements(document, $A(arguments));
2) getElementsBySelector boils down to:
return Selector.findChildElements(element, args);
So the only difference is the initial scope, really. If you want to use
$$ instead of the (verbose) $('someID').getElementsBySelector(...), just
say $$('#someID ...'). Won't be slower, I promise you that.
However, if you already have an element reference, turning over to $$
with something like $$('#' + elt.id + ' ...') is essentially a useless
roundtrip: you scope out to scope in again.
