Hmm...  well that's an interesting idea but I think it would eliminate 
the benefits of the streaming, would it not?  It seems like either the 
browser is going to wait until it is done downloading the stylesheet 
beforing rending the page (in which case you're waiting for the end of 
the render cycle for it to start) or else it would have to start 
rendering without the style and have everything change on the user after 
the stylesheet comes down (likely to be disturbing to a user).

Or am I missing the point?
