Re: Stylesheet Ordering Requirement

We certainly could but then, that's one less consistency that we'd be 
able to enforce, ie such as color of the links, etc.

Knowing that folks always have a tendency to argue about colors and 
shapes, we will get divergences and we won't attempt to manually enforce 
consistency. That's the reason why this rule was put in place to start 
with (remember the link color on the SVG specs?).

... which has the nice side effect that few attempt to do such thing.
