The Personal CSS was nearly removed completely during 4.9 development. There
was a good reason why it stayed in the end, but I can't remember what it
was..

I think the reason CSS for the shopping cart is not in a database is due to
the way the shopping cart templates and themes are constructed. Taking parts
of this out of the file structure and putting them in the configuration
database table would make it more difficult to drop in a new theme or
template.

That said, some pointers as to the purpose of the personal css would
probably help a bit. I'll see what I can do..
