I don't understand why you can't use a stylesheet like:
application.css
that handles the general case or "default theme", as you refer to it, and then
simply serve up a second stylesheet after that based on preference, as:
<%= stylesheet_link_tag :application %>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag @user_theme_stylesheet if @user_theme_stylesheet %>
You can then simply implement a before filter in your controller that sets
@user_theme_stylesheet based on user preference and relies on the CSS proximity
rule disambiguation to decide what CSS rule to apply.
Have I misunderstood your problem?
