True, I'll confess I didn't know much about the more arcane CSS selectors when I wrote that (still don't). Complicated properties, though, are not too hard, and the important thing is that it starts off in a form that's easy to process.

I don't intend it to be just a data language. What I've been moving toward in my daydreams is a DAG of, for lack of a better word, function calls (some interesting data doesn't really fit in a tree), some of which are generators. If Turing-completeness is a problem in your context, you can reject some or all generators and/or just not evaluate them, i.e. take them as pure data. But I don't want to limit myself. I would have no problem if it turned into a general purpose language with a nice data-oriented subset.
