Having them separated allows the flexibility to use a

assign properties for everything that the stylesheet

All back end components utilize both because most were
developed by copying another component, not because of
a decision that they _should look the same. I think
Open Source Strategies CRM component testifies to that
(although they may be simply using the cascading
effect of css as opposed to a stylesheet replacement).
Actually no, the back-end applications use the same styles because
they ARE meant to look the same.
The OpenSourceStrategies stuff is not part of OFBiz and they
certainly can (and obviously have) introduced their own patterns.
Personally, I would prefer additional separation of
maincss.css into the groups that are divided by
comments, but it's a rather trivial distinction.
I agree, it is rather trivial. I don't see any problem with combining
these files.

Jacopo,
While we're on the subject, could we also discuss
the possibility of combining
the maincss.css and tabstyles.css files into one
file?

Following the great advices in
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-241
I've started to play
with the styles in maincss.css file and apply the
mods to the
manufacturing application.
I've noticed some minor side effects (for example
the texts in the main
webtools page are smaller now) and I wanted to be
sure that the work I'm
doing is correct and, most of all, if it is a
good
moment to do this
work now (i.e. before a release).
So please, have a look at the revisions 492187,
492201, 492242
(especially at the changes I did to the
maincss.css file) and let me
know what you think.
