Thank you Stuart.
I just realized that something similar, perhaps, happens also in author space.
Visiting a resource I
(1) selected a css file to "Apply style file:";
(2) selected language "עברית - UTF" (hebrew); and,
(3) pressed "Change view".
Nothing happened.
(The style file was supposed to assist in rendering right-to-left typesetting.)
In student view, the the style file does work (when applied).
Looking at the rendered page code, I saw indeed that the <link> tag for the css file is not included within the <head> tag.
I applied for an account in bugzilla in order to submit a bug report.
Thanks.
