The whole reason of the toolbar/cmsui project is to simplify theming
of Plone by isolating the editing and administration interface CSS and
JS from the content. This is achieved by loading all of the
admin/editing interface in a separate iframe, overlaid on top of the
content page.

For current AT/Dexterity rich text fields, TinyMCE has it's own iframe
for editing anyway (to which you can add a supplementary css file if
you so wish) - so there is no change there in that respect. Deco is in
place editing and so makes certain demands of your content theme for
it to be compatible, but even this is much less than the current
situation where you have to deal with a huge amount of Plone CSS/JS to
get a working theme for editing/admin.
