How push css of template to that use by widget?

[tbworld]

I have been working on extending the "widget_id" to the CMS widget, preview, article templates. This would allow us to target an individual view or widget template, without having to modify the actual template. You could then change the "relative" look via CSS on an individual basis -- obviously it doesn't change the html. It would be possible, now that we have a "widget_id" to change the HTML via JavaScript dynamically.

For example in CMS templates:

<div id="cms_wrapper_{vb:var widget_id}">

     normal widget code here...

</div>

I have this working, but I am trying to figure out how to package it. Very few hooks in the CMS code.

Then in your additional CSS, taken from @Lynne's post, in your CSS:

   div.cms_wrapper_12 {background: red;}

This would target widget 12. One problem is that the widget id's are not displayed in the admincp like the forum id's so a patch has to be installed in there as well -- so the widget id's can be easily discovered.
