I can appreciate the development philosophy, but I don't see a compelling 
need for a "fix" here.  Said fix, as far as I can conceive it, would 
involve blocking plugin authors from using a (relatively obscure) 
workaround and prevent — what exactly?  Hypothetical style-hijacking?  It's 
not like there are roaming bands of irresponsible plugin authors wrecking 
people's StyleSheets. Even if there were, people would simply pass on their 
plugins — or request a fix — or fix them themselves.

Not to sound flip.  I think the concerns are real (and good ones).  I just 
don't want to endorse a fix that takes a tool out of the toolbox to combat 
a problem that's only hypothetical.  (If there are real-world examples of 
the load order causing problems, they're pretty rarified and likely easily 
addressed.)

Speaking of rarified, there's a way I benefit from the refreshStyles type 
of plugin:  I have several TiddlyWikis whose CSS is identical but have 
different background images.  In order to make some elements more readable, 
I've concoted quick-and-dirty plugins to override the default StyleSheet in 
those TWs.  Install the plugin, turn it on, and the styles adjust for that 
particular TW without affecting the StyleSheet I use (and update regularly) 
as my go-to.

So it's definitely true that I'm biased in favor of the workaround 
remaining.  ;)
