[REBOL] Re: [REBOL.org] Library look'n'feel

There's a killer application waiting to be written -- maybe it could be in REBOL. It'd be a browser plugin (or possibly a proxy server to work with older browsers too). It'd have an AI core and I'd tell it (ideally in non-CSS terminology) how I like to see websites in general. Or I'd say "make this site use that site's look"). Or give it examples of what I like, and let it generalise. It would generate appropriate local CSS files (and maybe tweak the HTML) to get the appearance I want. But that doesn't solve the problem of publishing an improved look'n'feel so that others can use it (do a google for "guerilla republishing" -- it's a related topic and could be a new trend). I guess you could say the Library CSS feature is trailing a small part of that: personalised CSS without waiting for new browser features, plus a publishing mechanism Sunanda.
