'docutils' add a stylesheet to the output html file for direct
consumption. Since we use the html files just as an intermediate step
which is post-processed to add our own stylesheet and drop the docutils
one in the process we can ask 'rst2html' to not add any for a
intermediate file with less garbage.

'an intermediate'

Hmm,
   Minimal style sheet for the HTML output of Docutils
does not look minimal to me:
"docs/kbase.html.p/kbase.html.in" 610L, 16789B                            557,1         93%
