Answer 1

YUI 3 (currently in pre-release) is explicitly highlighted by jQuery selectors:

Y.all('.foo').set('title', 'Go!').removeClass('off');

Take a look at:

Answer 2

YUI Selector Utility, CSS3 sintax, -, , : YAHOO.util.Selector.query

Answer 3

YUI has a selector utility from version 2 (http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/selector/), but it does not become popular in YUI 2, since most module codes are written before the selector is introduced in YUI2,
