Angular2 QueryList based on element class
<p>Is there a way to retrieve <code>ViewChildren</code> or <code>ContentChildren</code> by element class?</p>

<p>This will work, either by id or component but not for the class based queries, namely <code>classedViewItems</code> and <code>classedContentItems</code></p>

<pre><code>@Component({
    selector: 'my-container',
    template '&lt;div&gt;&lt;ng-content&gt;&lt;ng-content&gt;&lt;/div&gt;'
})
export class MyContainer {
    @ViewChildren('item') viewItems: QueryList;
    @ContentChildren(MyItem) contentItems: QueryList;
    @ViewChildren('.fine-me') classedViewItems: QueryList; // &lt;-- need this to work
    @ContentChildren('.find-me') classedContentItems: QueryList; // &lt;-- or this
}
</code></pre>

<p>for the following:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;my-container&gt;
    &lt;my-item class="find-me" #item *ngFor="let item; of items"&gt;&lt;/my-item&gt;
&lt;/my-container&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>I need to get the query list by the element class without decorating it.</p>
