This question must've been asked a thousand times, but I used the search feature and no answer presented itself.

Why are there selectors for a shoutbox at the bottom of the CSS when there is no shoutbox to which they apply?

Because there is an official shoutbox from us, however it isn't available for boards to use yet.
There was one on the Portal at Zetaboards, but Brandon decided to remove it.

Will it be released in time, or is it never going to be brought back?

Edit.
(For the purposes of skinning)

Oh it will :)

I know it's a gamble when editing the colours, but it's a fairly simple shoutbox.
Give me 5 minutes and I'll go screenshot it and indicate the classes for you.

Edit:

Borders on the left/right of the entire shoutbox are the borders of #shoutwrap.
Top/Bottom borders of the 'shouts' are both on li.odd

Timestamp is a DT, who and shout is a DD.

Seth liked to use 'definition lists' for a lot of things :P

Lol. I had it down as Drop Title and Drop Down for ease of remembrance :P

Is it just offline for bug testing and exploits or what, then...?

I don't know. I think there is a slight bug with it in IE, but otherwise it works fine.

Odd sort of thing to remove if you don't have to.

Any chance we'll ever see something comparable to the IPB system whereby you can check where selectors are called from? It'd be really useful with some of the CSS in the ZB structure IMO.
