selector "input#js-login-username:visible" caused exception

[fschwiet]

The following code:

browser.WaitForElement(BySizzle.CssSelector("input#js-login-username:visible")).ClearThenSendKeys(Account.Username);

Failed, when I removed ":visible" it worked. Exception was:

Exception encountered:

The reason this didn't work is because BySizzle doesn't support :visible, but JQuery does. Not sure if there is a better way to deal with this... Maybe BySizzle should be deprecated.
