Shaun,
Any class can be modified or overridden by the theme developer in
/themes/zen/style.css. The css cascade loads that last and it therefore
gets preferred status in the cascade.

Agreed.

        Note: I still believe in two external stylesheets with a single
        installed module @import. The static /conf/mod.css would be
        modified by boost on module install/uninstall. Core module css
        would load first. See my descendant selectors PoC. In addition
        alternate stylesheets are possible.
