 With the introduction of twenty eleven and the dark theme and link colors,
 changes to the element styles in the child theme's style.css are lost, as
 the dark styleshhet and link color styles are loaded after the child
 styles.

 If I selected the dark theme which changes the link color, or just changed
 the link color, I could not override the colors in the child themes
 style.css.

 I know how to fix this with !important and have updated the Codex Child
 Theme page, I have also seen topics in the forum where users are using a
 child theme and hacking the parent theme files to change these colors for
 the dark theme.

 I know it is low priority, but I thought I would create a ticket, as there
 might be a way of changing this in the core or twenty eleven theme.
