Consider implementing CSS selection in Web2Cit
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

XPath would be more powerful than CSS selection. There would be nothing one can do with CSS that cannot be done with XPath (whereas the opposite is not true).

However, I wonder whether CSS selection would be more familiar to some users, such as web developers.

Hence, consider implementing CSS selection in addition to XPath selection.

This would certainly make writing translations a lot easier for me. I think more people are familiar with CSS selectors than XPath, especially among technical wiki editors
