But shouldn't the work of loading and applying all the different CSS
properties of that node only be needed once after parsing is complete
and not each time it is rendered? Ideally I think this entire method
(LoadCSSProps) should not be called during render. If I understand it
correctly then all it is supposed to do is to find all the different
CSS props that apply to a node of this type and class and merge them
in the correct order into the props object of that node. After that is
done (once) it could be rendered. I wouldn't expect any of the CSS
properties (or any properties at all) to *change* between two
consecutive renders of the same document.
