Description

Hi,

There's a servo project [`rust-cssparser`](https://github.com/servo/rust-cssparser) that implements CSS 3 features.

Why not use that + make a thin selector on top of it?

That would make implementation of new features faster and more stable.

Unless you dont want to add another dependency?

Research direction

No files or tests are identified. Review simplecss's current parser and selector entry points alongside the proposed rust-cssparser dependency, then determine whether adopting it fits the project's scope. Done would require a maintainer decision on the dependency and a defined implementation plan.
