[Bug 24756] [imports]: Cascading order for stylesheets of imported documents should be stated more clearly

I think you misunderstand how those are handled, then.

UAs make a good-faith effort to not render while stylesheets are loading,
because it looks ugly, but they make no guarantees about it at all.

Can we please separate the concerns of avoiding flashes of unstyled content
(which is a purely visual/performance thing and is done best-effort) and
providing correct style information to scripts (which is handled by not running
the scripts until the stylesheets have been loaded)?
