Future work for CSS Within includes supporting more of CSS; today you can have a header, individual rules, and a footer; the header might for example define Web font rules. Adding more elements to support font and other at-rules directly might help maintenance of stylesheets.

You can reuse fragments of stylesheets with a name/ref mechanism, but this has not been explored extensively.

CSS Within could also do minification of CSS, and possibly automatic prefixing.

The most likely short-term enhancement is automatic generation of match patterns. Future work on enhancing the Java plugin to support automatically generating CSS files even in the presence of separate compilation is also planned.
