The Web evolves, as does Web development, and most people these days use
build tools, even for CSS (SASS, LESS, Closure Stylesheets, etc.)
Also, designers might not be programmers, but if they code CSS, they should
be capable of running the app in DevMode: tweak styles using the browser's
developer tools, when it's OK, copy the styles in the CSS resource, reload
and enjoy. Rinse and repeat until everything's OK.

You can use @external so mark the CSS class names as not being obfuscated.
But now you're responsible for making your class names unique throughout
your app, and you lose all the benefits of CssResources (though you can now
use SASS or LESS)
