2) Should there be at least a style.css template file within the tarball doc folder for users to play with?
What would be interesting to have in a sample style.css? All I have in mine is...let's see... ":link, :visited {text-decoration: underline !important}"
Colors, maybe...
Just my thoughts on this, I don't customize the layouts much from the default as page formating gets screwed-up when viewing heavily formated websites. ie. CNN, FoxNews, ...
In the past, I tried formating pages to use light fonts on a dark background, but as stated above, I would always encounter problems with other websites page colors. Since trying this 5+ years ago, just gave up and decided viewing the page as it was intended. Also conflicts if the user tries to print the page too.
As such, we can see why styles.css obviously doesn't get much attention due to the above issues. And for resolving screen brightness when I have a headache, I just use a CLI browser called ELinks.
When browsing at night, I sometimes use the following snippet with Firefox. Works with dillo too. Colors could use some tweaking.
* { font-family: 'M+ 1p' !important; background:#1E2426 !important; color:#C7C7C7 !important; border-color:#6B8299 !important; border-width:0.1em !important; } a { color:#C17B6C !important; } hr, h1, h2, h3, h4 { margin-bottom:0.2em !important; } th, td { padding:0.1em !important; } a { text-decoration:underline !important; border:none !important; } a:hover { text-decoration:none !important; } input, select, button, textarea { color:#548A1E !important; }

Tested here and it looks pretty good to put a commented section like this within the style.css file. The snippet above could use some comments within each statement though, so a user can modify the background and font colors at first glance here though. (In other words, I've seen some really nice commented xml/css stylesheets from News sites which I could easily read. ;-) -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org/
