 I recognize that, but how are theme developers anticipated to support
 gallery short code styling again, now that Core doesn't print the styles
 for free? Are theme developers supposed to copy the gallery_shortcode
 function, modify it, and put it into their themes? Or is there a more sane
 way of supporting galleries?
