I am new to Joplin and looking at how to modify some CSS things in Joplin and noticed that everyone is using !important; with almost every setting. I also noticed that this doesn't always work, for example I try to change the background color of a selected note in the notes-list, but on startup it remains the same gray theme color ... only when I toggle the developer-tools, suddenly my CSS is working and the background-color is my chosen yellow.  
The main reason, I think, is that 'userchrome.css' is not loaded last, but before the theme-styling. Can that be changed?

(macOS 10.15.7)

With the latest update from today, setting the background-color of a selected note in the note-list now works, also at startup. No need anymore to toggle the dev-tools. Thanks!
