Actually CSS2 style sheets can specify some text content, though
I don't think anyone uses this "feature", & I think it's a bad
idea to do so in any case. IIRC, the standard has an example of
this using the Q element as an example.
Regarding the notion of "presentation details", one thing I
always mention is that it is grammatically wrong to underline
links in Chinese pages. No one cares, but the underline is a
punctuation mark, meaning the underlined word is a proper noun.
"Presentation details" may be important for a language we don't
know about.
(The W3C guys seems to not realize this fact about "presentation
details", and is thus making HTML less Chinese friendly; it also
proposes features which are completely useless for languages they
are designed for. But that's another story.)
