Bah, never mind. All that editcss does is to make it easier to edit a
"local copy" of the CSS file. That means that you don't have to do the
thing I wrote about below, but OTOH I was hoping for something more than a
simple text-editor. (In Opera I can just go to 'user mode' and edit my
local CSS-file using Emacs).
I was hoping for some tool that already knows what CSS-fields are possible
for different elements, and had integrated help on the fields.
