Description

I just was looking to update one of my plugins for 3.1/3.2 making use of the new admin bar.

My plugin makes use of the .screen-reader-text CSS class but it is overwritten in the admin-bar by #wpadminbar *

I'm looking for a quick and simple fix to this.

!important

The only way I found so far was to add !important which is as the last resort here only. That's because of the cascade and the admin bar using the #id selector and I didn't wanted to introduce admin bar selectors into global css files.

As I was looking I've seen other css files next to global containing some .screen-reader-text selectors mainly adding visibility: hidden to them. From what I know this should not be done as screen readers might hide them as well. Just saying so, I think those can be dropped. You find them by searching for the class.

Is this still an issue? The toolbar now contains such text.
