    Is there a way to have a module's getStyles() called after another module?

      I’m starting to mess around a bit with a custom module and I’d like it to be able to override some styles from an existing 3rd party module.

      I know the following options work:

      • use custom.css
      • put my module after the existing module in config.js

      But if I ever wanted to release this module, I’d want it to be able to override the existing css content no matter what order it is put in the user’s config.js.

      I was tracing through loader.js and found that bootstrapModule loads the styles for a module but there doesn’t appear to be anyway to delay/reorder this. Then I followed through into main.js and I see that there’s a notification for ALL_MODULES_STARTED but this seems like it’s “too late” to modify the css order.
