If you used high-level APIs like StyleInjector, then yes GWT would handle
that for you; but when a workaround is needed in 0.001% of the cases and
would have a performance impact on the other 99.999%, then GWT let's you do
it yourself. Node#appendChild(Node) is such a case: if, in IE, which is
already slower than the other browsers (at least older versions that need
the workaround), you'd have to check "if this looks like a style element
and the node being appended is a text node, then do it that way" then your
app would be sluggish and barely usable.
My advice is to change your code to use StyleInjector (or a CssResource).
