Browsers will reload the stylesheet because the timestamp will change, but I'm not asking for this, because rails already does that with it's stylesheet_link_tag helper.
When asset images are modified the application will be restarted after redeployment and sass will then update the stylesheet, right? So it could be possible, maybe as an option (defaulted to off). This would give sass an edge over css in rails, as well enable people to save bandwidth and server hits on the graphic elements of their web applications.
