KQL can only select nodes 

the spec, as it exists, only seems to specify how to select nodes.

while it is true that matchers can reference properties and arguments, these are only ever used for filtering, and cannot be returned from the query.

thus, i am proposing to remove this sentence as it is somewhat confusing.

being able to select arguments and properties, similar to how xpath `@prop` works, would be nice, but it would require a new version of the spec with significantly more features.

# KDL Query Language Spec
The KDL Query Language is a small language specially tailored for querying KDL
documents to extract nodes and even specific data. It is loosely based on CSS
documents to extract nodes. It is loosely based on CSS
selectors for familiarity and ease of use. Think of it as CSS Selectors or
XPath, but for KDL!
