Comment:

 690.diff for consideration.

 Includes theme's stylesheet if bb_die is not called from the admin
 section.

 This may make errors look completely hideous unless you're using kakumei.

 Thoughts?

 I really do think, though, that we should use bb_die() only in extreme
 cases.  When errors are generated because of invalid data, we should just
 see if we can just output error messages on screen.

 For example, when you try to write a new topic without any post content,
 we should show the user whatever page the were on, refill all the form
 elements they had filled out and have an error message appear above the
 form.
