Re: Adding minimal CSS to pandoc's default HTML template

["Ganriel Nützi" <gnuetzi-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

It would definitely be a good idea to support a minimal css such that the document is somewhat sane. but anyway where does it stop, like Albert said it opens the box for requests like „oh can we add this or that“ to the minimal set :) However is the current impl. such that the minimal css (document-css) does not get added if we use a custom css style etc. Because converting an older document will result then in a minimal css +  custom css? 

is there not room for an external solution: a repo with pandoc css styles which can be used and which is referred to in the doc?
