I don't really see that.  In the great majority of cases there's about
one file to worry about (a CSS file accessed from a <link rel=stylesheet>).

Sure, we could do better with huge integration, but the point now is
more to get something (anything!) working.  Many Emacs users will also
be able to deal with the concept of configuring for their use case (do
you have on-the-fly style changes in a script? very well, configure
that script as an auxiliary file to search for such changes).  And so
on.  Leverage our users' skills to make life better for them, then
worry about putting Eclipse and Mozilla plugins out of business.
