Description Erik Arvidsson 2011-12-21 19:33:50 UTC 
"select, a set of space-separated tokens
defines the matching criteria for distributing child nodes of the host element. Each token must be a valid selector fragment. If any token is invalid, the entire value of the select attribute is considered invalid."

It seems like it would be more consistent to use a comma separated list since this looks like a css selector already.

Sure. Both already have nice parsing specs :)
