Sure.  But the login script already has become very convoluted due to
all the workarounds for problems that are never solved.  I prefer
solutions that need to be put only in installation scripts for the
specific program, not in the script run at every login.  It would be
reasonable when a solution that is presented "per user" is also available
"per installation"  (like e.g. the solution for extensions/plugins).
Maybe the program could read and add all .css files found in the chrome
subdirectory in the installation directory before it reads the
userContent.css?  Like it does for defaults/pref for .js files.

Well, we probably won't be installing 2.20 anyway due to other flaws.
We appear to be stuck to 2.14.1 because more and more things that are
critical to us are being broken.  (e.g. IMAP mail, composer)

In the Mozillazine article I found a solution that can be included
in the signature itself.  At least it solves the problem for the
display of our signature in other people's mail should they have
upgraded.
Of course it creates invalid HTML.  <style> is not allowed in <body>.
E.g. roundcubemail does not handle it correctly when composing.
But should we ever upgrade, at least the mail sent from today will
have the signature displayed correctly in that new version.  Maybe
that is sufficient.
