I already use --highlight-style, but unfortunately still need to do some 
CSS tweaks to improve the EPUB -> MOBI conversion result.

Still, are there any reasons why syntax highlighter CSS is embedded into 
html markup for EPUB files? Isn't it simpler to link it instead of 
embedding into each chapter? Does it affect how highlighting styles are 
applied due to some non-obvious CSS precedence issues on some devices? Is 
it safe to append it at the end of epub.css, or it is better to prepend it 
to keep the existing order?
