 * Am I correct in reading the CSS that !important is added after assignments? If
   so, how can that be removed?

 * Hi Sea Jay,
 * Yes, `!important` is added to ensure the font assigned from our plugin takes 
   priority. Currently, it cannot be removed, but I think having that option would
   be useful. I’ll look into adding it in the next release.
 * Thanks for the suggestion!
 * Best regards,
   Dinesh

 * Thank you for the response. Here is the use case:
   We assign a particular font
   to main content area links with UAF. However, we want to override that font assignment
   for a block type within the main content area. I’m not aware of doing that when
   UAF assignments are !important.Thank you for that future option!
