Are we or are we not supposed to be looking into the tons of ideas already
written by whatwg?

http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/section-sections
.html#sectioning
If adopted, will allow for "Zero or more style elements, followed by zero or
more block-level elements." basically, document 'section' within the main
<body> with their own isolated css <style> that can only affect the content
within that section. Thus solving the html e-mail styling issue once and for
all (especially in regards to webmail).

..Or is this one of the ideas that didn't make the cut... Or am I the only
one reading through the whatwg draft?
