 If I take a copy of the admin templates and modify '''base_site''' to
 include my own CSS in the block ''extrastyle'', the existing
 administration css will attempt to overwrite my changes (even those I
 declare as !important) when loading certain views. For example, the
 loading of '''changelists.css''' will alter my rules as the
 '''change_list''' template also adds to ''extrastyle'', and does so after
 mine are injected. I imagine that I could alter where I inject CSS to use
 the ''extrahead'' block instead of ''extrastyle'', but it doesn't seem too
 logical to do so.

 Mostly, I'm finding it nigh on impossible to move the filters menu to the
 left of a changelist, as the changelists.css says to add a margin-right
 with !important. I can't counteract this, as my stylesheet (complete with
 !important) is included beforehand, thus is superceded.

 I propose rejigging the CSS to not be dependent upon !important (maybe it
 can be got around by using even finer grained specificity?) where possible
 so that we might customise the administration without having to resort to
 butchering the existing admin templates (and making future merges
 potentially a pain), which serve their purpose very well.
