For one color, in a properly "optimized" CSS file, shouldn't there just 
be one place there as well?  That's the way mine are. I place all the 
specific styling as one would normally expect: by elements, IDs and 
classes, then end the file with all the color designators. Something like 
this little sample:

body { 
   background: white; color: black;
}
id1, id2, class1, class2, class3, class4 {
   color: blue;
}
p, li {
   color: green;
}

Then of course just use an 'include' in the PHP code to the CSS file.
