I seem to remember this cropping up on www-html sometime last year. As I
remember it there was some discussion over using a form something like:
<LINK REL=STYLESHEET TYPE="css/text" HREF="data: H1: { color: blue; }">
I'm not sure if I've got the syntax, or even the scheme, correct, and the
recent archive isn't searchable. Perhaps someone who remembers this a
little more clearly could enlighten, but I get the vague impression
haunting me that this was an accepted way of doing things, although quite
possibly not implemented anywhere.
