IMO, a single monolithic mother stylesheet goes against all that TW stands 
for and we should go in the exact opposite direction; We should split up 
the current theme(?) stylesheets into meaningful chunks - BUT then use the 
usual filter techniques to assemble them into some kind of overviewable 
aggregation that also sets the cascading order of them.

(Crazy idea: Maybe tiddlers could themselves be style definitions? The 
title is the selector and the text is the declarations. Maybe fields for 
sub selectors. This way it'd be very simple to reuse declarations. And it 
would be super simple to try out stuff; just overwrite such shadow style 
tids and delete if you regret. And we could tag styles or add other meta 
data.)

IMO, CSS hackability is one of the weaker areas in TW if you consider that 
hackability is a main objective and how powerful CSS is in TW.
