That is the question. I don't know what the right answer is, but here's
my current thinking:

1. Define a parameter that contains default content for a style element
   in the head.
2. Define a parameter that contains user-specified content for a style
   element in the head, initially empty.
3. If the user specifies an external CSS stylesheet or user-specified
   content for the style element, use that. Otherwise use the default
   content.

                                        Be seeing you,
