CSS !important Is Not Supported By Inline Styles

You can get pretty far with React's inline styling of components. There are however a few limitations. One such limitation is that the !important clause is not supported.

If you try applying !important to an inline style like so:

<div style={{ color: "red !important" }}>
  My div
</div>

You'll be disappointed when you open up the browser and inspect that div tag. The color rule will be ignored and excluded from the output html.
