Make Stylesheet Text Box Larger

Title:
Make Stylesheet Text Box Larger

Area:
styles

Summary:
http://www.dreamwidth.org/customize/options?group=customcss

The custom style sheet box would be much easier to write complex css in if it was wider. It's aligned to match up to the checkbox and textarea above, but it just looks like it is wasting space. There are many times when I feel like having to wrap my CSS around on several lines makes it harder for me to work in that box when I want to adjust things.

Description:
(See Summary)

It'd be exponentially helpful if it was as wide as the area the textbox sits in.

Bonus Suggestion:
"Use embedded CSS
If you'd like to add custom CSS to this style, enter it here."

That phrase should probably be aligned to the top of that box so that it's not placed below the large text box.

The way it is right now, it's got a rather high number of cols set, and no percentage override in CSS. If I was using the default font size I actually prefer, it would break the page. So it already has an issue due to hard set limits.

Prety sure the code for that page is inherited from when we forked from LJ and hasn't been changed. If it gets redone for here (which we hope it will), then whoever does it would pay attention to DW accessibility guidelines.

Makes sense, LJ has really horrible accessibility issues.
