I imagine that, in part at least, is because the standards have taken so long to be codified.
We've been calling it CSS3 and it's been implemented gradually in browsers but it's still a working document and not a finished standard (and now it seems never will be).
The pace of required changed for the needs of web page production and rendering is faster than the pace of the standards confirmation.
If this is just to address this issue then why not have "selectors 3", or whatever, as a part of a point release.
