When I try and use quick edit in my document to edit a class or id it works only if the rule is above a ::selection or ::after. If the class or id is after any of these rules that include a : or - then it will not find it and it wants me to create a new rule.

windows 8.1
Release 1.0 build 1.0.0-15191 (release 3f2eb90a4)

::selection { background-color: #67b2e7; color: #fff; }
::selection {color:#fff;background: #5a7388;}::-moz-selection {color:#fff;background: #5a7388;}

@rcbthree I can't reproduce it with my own::selection. Can you provide the CSS code that is causing the issue by pasting it in a comment or at the end of your description? Below is the CSS code that I tried.

.myh2::selection {
    color: white;  background: black;
}

.myh2 {
    margin-top: 1.3em;
}

Raise it to high priority since we have another related issue #9942 and it can crash Brackets after closing the developer tools.

The dev tools crash is an unrelated issue, so I think this should go back down to Medium (sort of moot though, since there's already a PR up).

Fix PR includes a unit test, so removing 'needs unit test'
