[Radiant] Avoid Stylesheet Children

[Keith Bingman]

I would do this in an extension. John has a very nice tutorial at  
http://www.radiantcms.org/blog/archives/2007/06/23/tutorial-creating- 
radiant-extensions/
This should get you going. In short, radiant has extension generators  
that work like the normal rails generators.
