But what if I have some print and some on-line rules in the same
stylesheet?  Surely not unthinkable, since most properties will be the
same for both media.  This is why CSS provides the @media rules *in*
the stylesheet, and why XSL has an open issue about how best to
provide this functionality.  Don't re-invent the wheel.
