One might expect that calling someCSSStyleRule.selectorText = ".someOtherClass" might actually cause someCSSStyleRule's selector to change. That would be a foolish assumption indeed! See the attached sample .html; clicking the "foo" link should turn it black. Also, the rule's cssText is logged to the console after being changed from "foo" to "bar"; note that its selector is still ".foo". Firefox doesn't seem to implement this setter either, but the property is marked as readwrite in the spec: http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Style/css.html#CSS-CSSStyleRule
