A sheet with no title is always loaded, for example (that's especially handy for basic formatting common to all alternate styles). Multiple sheets with the same name all get selected together. You can specify different versions for "print" media than for "screen" media, thus eliminating the need for those "click here for a version formatted for printing" links. You may not want to get into all that, but perhaps a reference to <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/present/styles.html#h-14.3" rel="nofollow">the relevant portion of the HTML specification</a> would be helpful to readers.

There are some limitations that should perhaps mention, see: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126841 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=426365 (which should probably be duped to the above, though WONTFIX is the wrong resolution) And works for me in Firefox 1.0.7 so, just some very overdue documentation.
