I do agree with the buzzword comment, but her pattern, however it is named, is a good one. We have been using at uShip.com for about 20 months.

It is also worth noting that facebook contracted her to help them reduce their out-of-control CSS. I don't remember her exact numbers, but I know she cut down the size down by >50%

How much did she increase the weight of HTML? CSS file can be downloaded once cached and never bothered again (if expires is set correctly). Bunch of classes attributes in your HTML will travel down the line every single time you request a page.
