What a wonderful resource - that is just the kind of thing I joined the 
mailing list for.

Every so often I'd come across a new selector I hadn't seen before and 
think "should I try to implement this one or not in my client?" Your 
summary page gives an empirical picture of what is actually used in 
practice. The long tail rest can be mostly be handled as a generic 
binary download.

Many thanks!
