Hi Alec. Why does your name sound familiar to me?
comp.lang.python maybe?

You can either

1) use a dtml document or method for the stylesheet
(they will happily contain any text content)

or

2) put the stylesheet on the filesystem , and create
an ExtFile that points to it, or a LocalFS that points to
its directory.  (ExtFile comes with zope, but LocalFS does not.)

either way, you will be able to edit them through-the-web.
