Ideally, if we're going to implement this at all, then I'd like to see the
same level of style switching support in IE as is available in FF, one way
or another, but I (personally) don't have a problem with the feature being
FF-specific.
Presumably the OverrideStylesheet config option still works alongside your
AlternateStylesheet option? Additionally, I'd go with AlternateStyleSheets
if you can specify more than one.
I like the "chocolate" and "lemon" descriptions :o)
