Most apps., when the user wants to change a font size, presents the user with a number to change. Requiring instead that they edit a headline that looks like this: @string font-size = 12pt is already making Leo less friendly to non-coders. Requiring that they edit CSS without messing up the syntax is even more coder centric. And I know you can just copy by example for the syntax, but it's amazing how hard people seem to find that. Maybe fonts are a poor example because they're the one case where you accept settings are needed, but it's true of whatever - colors - most apps. off a color dialog, but Leo wants you to edit CSS and understand color naming? Actually I think Leo can offer a color dialog for editing color settings, not sure. Again, settings being simpler, *for the user*, than CSS. Finally if two level settings are annoying while developing a theme, it would be easy to write a command to dereference the selected text in the log, so you can see what it is.
