If users *truly* have a very specific need for certain set colours, they should set their browser not to let pages/styles override them, or create their own ! important user styles, surely? Or are we back with dumping all responsibility purely on the developers, rather than the onus with the user and expect them to learn how to set up their particular browsing environment? -- Patrick H.
