Description Jon 2014-04-28 23:37:58 UTC 
The MobileFrontend extension has a file called hacks.less

http://git.wikimedia.org/blob/mediawiki%2Fextensions%2FMobileFrontend/8d9184c2d4af6e460ccea44be32b88db6565afc7/less%2Fcommon%2Fhacks.less

The purpose of this style is to optimise various user created templates for mobile devices by overriding existing known inline styles. It does this by using !important which is the only way to override an inline style.

Ideally this file shouldn't exist. All the components should have CSS which optimise the template for various display sizes.

The creation of a mechanism to style templates would provide a great generic solution to this problem:
