It's already standardized (and implemented at least in Mozilla, for
many years now); see:
http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Style/stylesheets.html#StyleSheets-StyleSheet-DocumentStyle
http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Style/css.html#CSS-CSSStyleSheet
except that there's no addRule method (there's instead insertRule,
although appendRule would be nice), and insertRule takes the rule as
a single string, not a separate selector and declaration.
