The only way to access them was by doing a cast (generally they're accessed via `Selector` not by their sub types).  The reason they were public at all was because the CSS engine needs to be able to access them from internal packages.

Doc changes and implementation both look good. I left one comment and will reapprove if you decide to make that change.
