These all sound good to me.  The underlying style handling layer (the
old XSS stuff) was never designed to support #1 or #3, but think it
would be worthwhile to see what we can do to address these.

I've got a process question here, which I am a bit hesitant to ask
given our recent "discussions", but, well, what the heck... Shouldn't
we be discussing/reviewing such requirements/API additions before the
changes are committed to the trunks?  Not that I am not grateful that
Cristi has invested the time on providing a solution (thanks for doing
this Cristi!).  I am just wondering whether in general it would be
better to review/agree on new APIs before they get committed.

Does Trinidad (or MyFaces) have any policy/guidelines on how new
API/feature additions should be handled?  Not picking on Cristi here -
I recently added some new skinning features myself and wasn't sure
whether there were some specific steps that I needed to follow.
