Comment (by johnjamesjacoby):

 > Using @import and cssmin meets all our needs
 @import can be problematic for plugins that include their own admin color
 schemes because `wp-content` might not always be relative to `wp-admin`.

 Helen: we've talked in the past about just copying dependent styles
 directly into the plugin's color scheme(s), but that comes with added
 overhead of needing to merge core styling changes between versions.
 Because it changes frequently (and drastically every few years) I was
 hoping for an approach that enqueues the structural bits, and separates
 out the individual color schemes.

 Any comment or recommendation on how best to proceed, and does this point
 warrant its own ticket?
