dojo.query("tag > :not(tag)") returns empty results

[bill]

On dojo/tests/_base/query.html, from firebug:

dojo.query("div > :not(p)", dojo.byId("t4"))

This should find the nested div but it doesn't.

It returns an empty list. Similarly for "div > :not(div)" should find the <p> inside the <div> but it doesn't.

I believe this is a dup of #8358

This returns results: [div#one.subDiv, div#two.subDiv]

dojo.query("div>:not(p)", dojo.byId("t4"))

Hmm, could be, although technically it's the opposite of that ticket, in this case selectors *with* spaces aren't parsed correctly.

I added a note to #8358. I think these two tickets are related.

After fixing #8358, this query still fails. I believe it is unrelated to the spaces issue that #8358 had. After the 8358 fix, both the "div>:not(p)" and "div > :not(p)" are normalized to the same string, so both will fail now.

please review/triage

Still fails in trunk (post 1.7).

Ticket planning... move current 1.13 tickets out to 1.15 to make it easier to move tickets into the 1.13 milestone.
