Hi Jan,

After many headaches trying to work around the empty style panel I think I 
have found the actual reason and it has nothing to do with useragent 
strings - atleast not directly.
On my site im using Microsoft SignalR which has a transport fallback to 
longpolling requests if the device do not support websockets. Because im 
testing back and forth between mobile and desktop devices, i have been 
running longpolling requests for desktop browsers also, and it seems this 
is what makes the style panel blank.

It seems weird there should be any connection between these two things, but 
when i set the transport method to websockets in SignalR my style panel 
works fine.
A twist is that if i run with longpolling and open my site in a tab the 
style panel is empty, but if i open another tab with the same page the 
style panel works - this is what have made it very diffecult to debug 
because the behavior is so erractic.

I'm still not entirely sure this is the actual cause, but it seems to work 
for me when not using longpolling requests. This could be SignalR related 
or a general longpolling issue, i have not tested this with anything else 
than SignalR.
