Hehe. That helper really mixes a CSS rules creator (with insane array
manipulation, which is the part that burns) and a simple HTML
generator (which could be in the layout file itself). The whole thing
should be dropped; I wanted to quickly demonstrate something I had in
my lab. This would be appropriate:

@todo Delete from repository

In a more advanced example, I've added YUI's colorpicker and other
fancy things to the interface so you can define colors, backgrounds,
fonts and paddings on-the-fly, seeing they applied to the page as you
play with the options. But this would be a whole app, I think.
