[dokuwiki] CSS handling in print environment?

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hi all,
What is the reason that style.css of the plugins is not included in the style 
sheet in print mode? My intuition would say that style.css is always 
included, screen.css is included in screen environment and print.css in print 
environment. 

Currently, each plugin author has to copy everything from style.css to 
print.css to get a proper printout. This approach, however defeats the 
purpose of cascading style sheets, where you define the basic properties of 
the styles in one place, but can override them in subsequent style sheets.

So, I would propose to also include lib/plugins/*/style.css before 
lib/plugins/*/print.css, as this enables plugin authors to define the basic 
properties only once and then fine-tune them in print.css and screen.css.
Currently, some plugins even take the style.css and copy it over to print.css 
if style.css is newer than print.css. This, however, makes it impossible to 
get proper printouts as its not possible to fine-tune the print environment.

Or are there any obvious reasons why the css are currently handled this way? 

Cheers,
Reinhold
