1) "!important" is not a solution, especially that "css_editor" alone includes declarations with !important which therefore you can not overwrite. In order be able to custom-style the templates one has to be sure that his "customised CSS" WILL be loaded as the very last.
2) in this case JS does not add additional classes. I managed to track down the issue and - from my perspective - it's an error which I can not bypass in any reasonable way.
The contententry template includes <script type="text/javascript"></script> block at the very end. Apparently - rendering this template (which happens if one tries to "edit" someone's post) renders blocks full of <link rel="stylesheet">in place of the script block.
This forces the browser to try to re-download those CSS templates (which it should not do, hence they're already in the browser cache) AND re-render whole page keeping in mind new order of css files ("new" files / files linked lower in the code list will become "more important" and override style declarations from any files loaded / linked earlier).
What's interesting - it's sufficient to have an empty <script type="text/javascript"></script> block in mentioned template for this behaviour to occur… :/
Rendered code looks like:
