 [https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=481122 Allow the page
 to render before <link> tags in body]

 > We block rendering the entire page until the CSS has loaded. IE will
 allow content before the <link> to render, and block afterwards. Firefox
 is similar to IE, but overshoots slightly (the "Hulk Hogan" heading is
 after the <link>) revealing unstyled content.

 Regardless of the spec, browsers can deal with CSS in the body as WP
 currently supplies it and are improving their behaviour. It's not pretty
 but letting devs learn is important.
