CSS Doesn't Show Up in Designer Mode When Using Themes and Master Pages

First off. Hats off to MS to really doing a good job of major fixes on
VS 2K5. It is really a lot better. I have begun using Master Pages
with Themes but am a bit confused as to how to make the CSS styles in
those themes appear during development (not at run time, i know that
most forums explain the css files in the themes are merged 'at run
time' to make the page you view).

I want to use Master Pages w/ Themes but if sadly I feel the only way
right now to see the styles I create in my themes is to load the page
in Dreamweaver and temporarily use a <LINK tag to the css file I need
so i can view the page with the applied styles and then modify them.

1 ) Does anyone know of a way to use CSS styles in Designer mode in
your page that uses a Master Page ?

2) If Not, What are some of the ways people are solving this problem
out there ?

Thanks
