In my example *[vendor*="stuff"] the first * means that this pattern should be matched for every element. The second * (after vendor) means that this rule should be applied for all vendor attributes where the value for the attribute includes the string "stuff" as a substring. Whereas the *[vendor~="stuff"] would mean that the rule should be applied for all elements with an attribute vendor that includes the value "stuff". Basically the "~" will work for attribute values where an element looks like <blah vendor="stuff morestuff blah"> but not values like <blah vendor="stuff;morestuff;blah"> whereas using the the "*" selector should work for both. With Docbook profiling it is recommended that the semicolon is used as a separator between values within the attribute. Thus, XMLMind not supporting the * selector for attribute values is a bit of a problem.
