I think the time you need for the CSS, will be saved later:)
So were do you want the instant gratification - for the implementor or for
the user?
So far, we thought the user's instant gratification or should we say the
avoidance of user frustration is the most important part.
But here again - Christian has certainly something to add - a more flexible
