unify(sels) click to toggle source

Unification of a universal selector is somewhat complicated, especially when a namespace is specified. If there is no namespace specified or any namespace is specified (namespace `”*”`), then `sel` is returned without change (unless it’s empty, in which case `”*”` is required).

If a namespace is specified but `sel` does not specify a namespace, then the given namespace is applied to `sel`, either by adding this {Universal} selector or applying this namespace to an existing {Element} selector.

If both this selector and `sel` specify namespaces, those namespaces are unified via {Simple#unify_namespaces} and the unified namespace is used, if possible.

@todo There are lots of cases that this documentation specifies;

  make sure we thoroughly test **all of them**.

@todo Keep track of whether a default namespace has been declared

  and handle namespace-unspecified selectors accordingly.

@todo If any branch of a CommaSequence ends up being just `”*”`,

  then all other branches should be eliminated
