Add ability to customize style via css

I propose that we use an "ol" prefix and append the appropriate javascript class name. For example:

• olPopup
• olPopupContent
• olExtentRectagle

OpenLayersAndCss has some documentation on this. A default stylesheet (possibly with alternatives) should go into css/ in the root directory. RossC0 is working on doing this to the current styles used in the OL code.

From #272

Reported to dev list by Sean Gillies:

... [user can] accidentally select the WMS tiles from my base layer by clicking around the viewport. This was a bit disconcerting to him, not only because it causes a graying out of the map. You can see this behavior with the map on http://openlayers.org.

I've been able to solve this by setting -moz-user-select: none on the tile and control img elements. Is this a good solution? Any possible side-effects involving other aspects of OpenLayers?

Thanks for the tip, it seems to work great (on firefox at least). I use it same like this;

<div id="map" style="moz-user-select: none"></div>

Framework in place: documentation in source:/trunk/openlayers/doc/customization . As we complete more conversion to CSS (to resolve tickets, and adjust specific functionality requeseted by users with proper testing), comment here: this is a meta-ticket to hold information about skinnability requirements, not a specific release blocker.
