Title: Studio: Resolves Notifications UI showing in IE9 + CSS Rearchitecture

This Studio work does the following:

* provides a fallback to displaying "is-shown" notification UI elements for IE9.
* splits our application-centric CSS (formally stye-app.scss/css) into two css files to resolve Studio's styling going over the IE 9 and below CSS limits (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ieinternals/archive/2011/05/14/10164546.aspx).
