Severity
It block me from using css library like a17t so pretty severe in my opinion

Hey @wighawag 👋 Thanks for the report and the repro 😁 This is happening due to the change introduced in #168. The regexp we use to split a selector into multiple parts should ignore escaped ~ characters. Unfortunately, I don't have the time right now to find a fix or an alternative lightweight way of splitting the selector, but I'll come up with a possible solution soon. In the mean time, any help is appreciated 👀

[kaisermann]

This would be easily fixed with something like postcss-selector-parser, but I'm really trying to keep this library as lightweight as possible and adding 49.9kb to it is definitely undesired. I found a way of fixing it by using lookbehind assertions (#193), but this change can be a breaking one for some people since lookbehind assertions are only available in Node 9.11.2+. I'll keep the PR open for now and decide if the risk of merging with v3 is worth taking or if I should merge it with the v4 branch (#171)

[kaisermann]

As I don't want to ruin the experience for those using node v8.x or lower, this one will be fixed when v4 lands 😁

[kaisermann]

Just released v4-alpha.1 with the fix! You can already try it with npm i -D svelte-preprocess@next. The changelog can be found here (https://github.com/sveltejs/svelte-preprocess/blob/v4/CHANGELOG.md#400-alpha1-2020-07-05).
