Not necessarily. Those publishers who mark up their content richer than they
are able to deliver it, if not given a powerful-enough style sheet
mechanism, will be inclined to manipulate *both* the (vendor-extended set
of) HTML tags and the associated style sheets.
Contrary to what has been said, content providers will deliver style sheets
in whatever formats are implemented in the popular browsers. Such style
sheets, however, might just wind up being derived from a combination of
richer authoring-side structural markup and a complex document
transformation procedure.
