In a site that allow several CSS choices from View->Use Style if one selects other than the default style and then opens some other page from the same site offering the same CSS choices the default is used, not the one that was selected before selecting a link.

This is important in sites that provide text-only/low-bw variants when used over modem or other non-broadband connection. Also important if using so visually better suitable CSS.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/
2. View->Use Style->Steely
3. Follow a link like "learning CSS" in the introduction. The new page does not use the selected "Steely" style altough it would be available.

Actual Results:  
The new page does not use the selected style altough it would be available.

Expected Results:  
The new page does use the selected style if it would be available.

Setting severity to major because this is a real PITA when browsing over GSM.
