It can be useful to select for partial attribute names (not values); for example trying select all elements with an aria attribute (i.e. any attribute name which matches /aria-.*/) or data attribute (/data-.*/), another example is the recent popover attributes; popovertoggletarget, popoverhidetarget, popovershowtarget - it would be useful to have on selector to find all "popover invokers" that have an attribute matching /^popover.*target$/.
I'd like to propose some way of extending the attribute selector syntax to allow for this kind of wildcard. Simple wildcards rather than regexes will likely be sufficient.
