I'm waiting (wishing) for the WWW/Mosaic widget that would let the
user click a button ... and the widget would save the user's
existing style sheet ... but instantly substitute, for that
document only, the style sheet selected by the designer.

Seems to me it should not be an impossible programming task ... but
I haven't heard that anybody's actually doing it yet.  (Of course
there are various problems with lack of a standard set of fonts
across platforms and individual machines, and so forth.)

Does anybody else want it?  Is anybody planning to do it?

Cheers,
Bill
