I'm quite aware that an inline style tag is not going to be approved, and
I sincerely hope that was not a factor in your decision making process :)
I only wanted to provide a simple 1-file way of showing how the current
admin site can be re-styled to look a bit more modern.
Anyways, if the idea is to make such a re-design much more complicated,
then I foresee that Django will be stuck with the current looks for a long
time. I respect that one should avoid breaking template overwrites and
that some users may possibly be confused. But what I'm saying is that it's
time for some kind of moderate development so the design of the admin site
can start a slow and stable evolution instead of just being stuck since
version 0.1 :)
I agree with you that the admin markup needs to be modernized, but I think
this is a far more dangerous project than updating the current stylesheet
as it will break current customized template overwrites and CSS.
I think that more self-contained patches for the admin CSS would be great!
