Håkon, CSS Working Group, not overly familiar with how exactly each user agent handles extensions, at least Chrome allows authors of extensions to apply style sheets to documents [1]. The CSS specs, however, don’t seem to be clear—please correct me if I’m wrong—about what origin such style sheets are considered to have, or where these style sheets have to be seen when it comes to order of appearance. Although I’m not asking on behalf of Google or any other user agent implementor, the wide number of possible scenarios make it appear useful, possibly important, for the CSS 3’s “Cascading and inheritance” module to clarify. Personally I could see arguments for a different origin (“user agent extension”) but also for regarding such style sheets as user style sheets when, order-wise, coming before any “real” user style sheets so that “user important” style sheets still trump. Thank you, Jens. [1] http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/content_scripts.html -- Jens O. Meiert http://meiert.com/en/
