The additional benefit is it gets rid of the _global call and allows finer control over which elements are styled - even if they are of the same type. The idea of having 'pathed' calls is a big no-no as far as I am concerned within a component class. So I don't have _parent or _global in my any of my classes. Hence how this came into being... I'm trying to tidy up the functions library but I haven't had time to sort it so it to such a degree that I'd be happy to release it. Should be ready soon though :P Yes, I tend to utilize it within component classes that has other components that are styled within it.

Also, that function library you mentioned that you made sounds interesting. So the benefit of this is that styles can be reused easily without using _global?
