Thanks for the update Mislav and thanks for your work. I also experimented
with a variant of livereload. One that will actually plug into your Rails
app so you don't have to think about activating the browser plugin (you
don't even need to install anything in your browser). I think instead of
updating stylesheets link you do, the reordering of the Rack middleware is a
cleaner solution (not sure if it is faster or slower). It means you only
have to make sure that the browser reloads the css and that is don with the
timestamp.

I'll post a link here when my variant of livereload is any good for public
use.
