Correction:  Actually I made a mistakes that it was JSON.  The 
parser doesn't return JSON, the parser returns a tree of nested objects. 
The documentation simply turned it into JSON in order to serialize the 
contents of the object for readability.  So this is even more familiar, 
just traversal with recursion maybe.

I think that's right.  We might get the first two thirds of a three step
process done "free" by the libraries and have to write the function that
you describe.  Since querySelectorAll returns elements (foo) and the
parser css.js breaks down selectors, attribute names (bgcolor) and
attribute values (white) into neat compartments, I think it would be
(don't want to speak too soon) somewhat straightforward to dole out
bgcolor=white to foo.style.

Here is the code for the parser and then for querySelector:

And here are the git projects:
