The code has already broken again.  StyleManager.getStyleManager(null) does
not appear reliable either.  It is failing internally on this line:

moduleFactory = SystemManagerGlobals.topLevelSystemManagers[0];


which appears to be the same execution ordering issue as with FlexGlobals.

I'll remove any attempt at default style setting for now, and ensure I have
CSS type selectors in place.  I'm still very curious how you (or if you
can) set the default value in absence of css, though.
