First time I discovered this bug using fckEditor. I traced it with firebug, and I recreated a very simple situation:

There is a page: xhtml+css. The color of the link is defined by the stylesheet. 
If we turn designMode on, the color of the link changes to blue.
There are a lot of other small changes against the stylesheet.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a page: xhtml+css
2. set the color of the <a> elements: a {color:yellow}
3. turn designMode on (with javascript or firebug)

Before a bugfix is available, you can use a simple workaround: Just add !important to the link color definition in your stylesheet. Then, the color will be displayed correctly even in designMode.

Simon: Thank you for the hint!
I see designmode.css (resource://gre/res/designmode.css) has changed in last release. 
Thanks!
