The real problem is that styles assigned directly using 
element.style.something (or using the style html attribute) cannot be 
different for different medias. Print-events are not really a solution 
for this problem, since you might also want the dynamic styles to be 
different for e.g. handhelds vs. desktop browsers.

I think that dynamically assigning/removing classes rather than styles 
is a cleaner separation between style and logic, which is just as 
desirable for script code as it is for HTML.
