Read moreTwentyTen Theme-Specific Styles Removed for 1.5.2.2+
By Kevin FlahautUpdate: This change made it into an earlier release than originally expected. It’s effective for the new 1.5.2.2 release. In another bit of housecleaning and streamlining the plugin, we’ve decided to remove the TwentyTen theme-specific rules from the default forms.css file starting with the release of the 1.5.2.2 version.

To be clear, this doesn’t mean we’re dropping support for the TwentyTen theme itself, it simply means we’re not including those theme-specific styles in the default stylesheet from now on.

We originally decided to try this as a service to our Thesis users, but it’s not something that’s really scalable or something we believe needs to remain in the core plugin css file.
