Well, if the content is being flowed into arbitrary container shapes then it's not necessarily being styled "exactly as the author intended", but OK. But it seems that what you want is basically "seamless" minus the first two CSS features here: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/complete.html#attr-iframe-seamless is it not? If so, then extending or modifying "seamless" with more control over how styles in the outer document affect the inner document seems like the way to go. Rob -- "If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us." [1 John 1:8-10]
