± by using !important you are overriding my user stylesheet....
If so, this is a bug in your user stylesheet. I also have user stylesheets and always use "!important" on my declarations if they are meant to override the author's rules.
[[
User agent style sheets may also contain ‘!important’ declarations.
These override all author and user declarations.

This is also wrong. I'm respecting the WAI principles by setting both the background and the color at the same time, making sure they always end up being contrastful enough. Look at the code.

Now, if anyone still has some more comments to make about "!important", may I ask you to start a new thread, and leave the "cascade" use case thread focused on "cascade".
Kind regards,
François.
