This doesn't seem to address the most basic issue that Style solves,
and was brought up by Shannon:
How does a client know that a black border will not appear over top of
a black image, nor a white border over a white image?
And by extension, a red border over top of a red segment of an image.
If anyone has a real solution to that practical issue, I'd love to
hear it. Otherwise I would recommend following the consensus of the
first telecon, documented in the wiki:
We keep oa:Style and add oax:CssStyle as the only subclass.

Don't do that then. Style is always only a hint, not an ultimatum.
