I used to think of patternsets as selectors as well.

The nested include is still a pattern rather than a
selector; a better comparison would have been
<fileset dir="">
<filename name="foo" />

implementation you see that patterns have precedence
over selectors, which can have surprising results
under the right/wrong circumstances.
