That was the wow thing for me (maybe because it took me a while to 
figure it out ;-). "hijacking" the browser's stylesheet handling *may* 
be unorthodox or politically incorrect but it certainly is a robust and 
usable approach for the majority of clients out there.

Other than that, this largely falls under the never ending 
HTML_embedded_metadata thread so I will pass. I know Sean will not hold 
it against me :-)


Cheers,
