Anselm Hannemann @helloanselm.eurosky.social · 25/08/2026The 'w' modifier (or more general, modifiers for expression selectors) I think is a great idea to add. This feels more of solving a real issue. However it’s not solving the performance issue that people wanted to solve with -* 010
Anselm Hannemann @helloanselm.eurosky.social · 25/08/2026Yeah, that’d be great. I think my main concern is that the current draft to me reads too rushed and too far from reality to be a web standard feature. Hence my try to publish a blog post with concerns to boost discussion. Unfortunately, not much feedback came, so special thanks to you here! 000
Anselm Hannemann @helloanselm.eurosky.social · 25/08/2026By the way, the whole goal of the spec is performance gains. There’s a lot of history in CSSWG of creating features for performance which turned out to be solvable for UA vendors while a spec feature is hard to drop later on. Your ID example has the same poor performance so doesn’t solve the problem 000
Anselm Hannemann @helloanselm.eurosky.social · 25/08/2026It may look more clean at the moment but it’s less flexible and more confusing in details as the current draft spec is. For the suggested feature, the whitespace does not matter btw. What I don’t get is why it’s fine for you for IDs but not for classes? 000
Anselm Hannemann @helloanselm.eurosky.social · 25/08/2026It’s still in discussion as far as I understand. It’s leaning towards what you write here but not decided. And… it’s still not BEM compatible which would mean __ is also possible to use. The main point though on BEM was that a v2 with prefixes was suggested which is not a realistic thing. 000
Anselm Hannemann @helloanselm.eurosky.social · 25/08/2026Thanks for the feedback. On this one: I know it’s not meant RegEx, that’s what I actually am concerned about. There’s talk that this is a new syntax but a standard should be for the masses. And masses will see this as RegEx and wonder why it does not behave like it. 000
