There's a hint there: add a string (most likely a comment) to each bit 
that will be sent to the browser, that indicates its origin.  Look at 
the earlier thread about "//@ sourceURL" for an example of this, one for 
which Firebug will actively assist.  (Hmm, could Firebug learn to 
recognize a similar string in CSS "chunks" and somehow tag the styles 
that come from that chunk?)
