Previous revisions of CSS had sibling-level selectors which would have
allowed you to do this; for instance, "/H1/ P {text-indent: 0em}" would
affect the first paragraph after a level-1 header. Unfortunately, this
had to be dropped in order to lower the bar far enough to convince
browser implementors to jump on.

"Terrorism"? Am I correct in interpreting this to mean that you intend
to deliberately make your pages unusable without the accompanying style
sheet?
