I use several global styles, each works better with different sites. I have to swap between them all the time. I see how I can edit them to add sites, but that would be tedious for every site.
Is there a good FF addon to manage what urls the styles apply to?
For example, 2 context menus: "Favorite Page Styles" and "Favorite Page Mods".
Favorite Page Styles are 'generic' styles that affect a whole page, that's the idea anyway, the user can add any style to this list. Only one is used at a time. Choosing a different one automatically removes any other in this list. If a favorite doesn't work well on the current page, it can be hidden. The list of visible and hidden can be edited on the app management screen. When a new Favorite Page Style is added, it will be on the FPS list for every page, until marked hidden.
Favorite Page Mods is a list of styles that might be used on any page together. The idea is they only affect a specific part of the page. More than one can be selected. These can be hidden per-page, and initially show on all pages.
The manage screen lets you hide/unhide, define URL groups, edit a style (open in stylish).
The point is to make it easy to set a style for any page, any time. Currently I think the only way to do this is to enable one and disable others from the global list, which affects other pages, which is annoying. The only way to get a style to be specifically for one page is to code it. But it seems the whole point here is to make things easy.
You can use moz-document rules to make them specific to a list of sites you specify or have them apply to all sites except those you specify. This would require a bit of tinkering with the code, but it's not too bad.

On a semi-related note, is it possible to read data in from an external file? Like the OP I use multiple global styles with an ever-expanding exceptions list and it would be nice to maintain that in one file which is then imported by each style.
Of course if it doesn't work I can just script a "global theme builder" so I can maintain the moz-doc line separately and then generate all my global styles at once when they need to be updated, then re-add them to Stylish.

Am I doing it wrong?
