That's interesting. Does that mean that storing information in the stylesheet
document, a common suggestion for solving search and replace problems, is
probably not very efficient, because the processor is actually re-loading
the stylesheet?

If that's the case, is it good practice to store this data in a separate
file in the same directory as a stylesheet? Anyone got any tips on good
practice.
