For example, Headshot simply increases Critical Hit damage. Do I get this bonus on my melee attacks? What about the other skills in the sniper tree? In other places, it specifies melee or ranged attacks.

IIRC the first game was pretty specific about when your bonuses came into play. I would hazard a guess that if it doesn't specify, it's probably universal, but don't quote me on that. Or do, whatever, you'll just look silly for quoting an unreliable source :) – Alex Sep 18 '12 at 15:10

I'm not 100%, but I think it should. If it states it definitively in other places, then it should be a global thing, despite the name. In fact, the Borderlands Wiki seems to agree: it simply states that critical hit damage increases by 4%. Not melee, not ranged, but just critical hits. In fact, considering that Headsh0t is used in an optimal melee build, it would seem to be correct.
