It is not an either-or situation. I routinely write CSS into documents
using xslt, getting the best of both. The CSS is essentially just a block
of CDATA, so there are no problems for the xslt processor. I sometimes
develop the CSS on a mock up, them paste it into the xslt stylesheet. And,
of course, you can keep the css in a separate file and just import it into
the document.
