Issue Summary
As a developer of Drupal modules using ExtJs extensively, it has been a real pain seeing Drupal's css conflict with ExtJs' css. And all efforts to get them to work together have proved futile without hacking into the core directly.
And I think most would agree on the usefulness of ExtJs inside Drupal modules. So, I request the core css to be tweaked to be compatible with ExtJs out-of-the-box.
I have found the system module's system.css to be the main culprit together with other css files.

8.x, well that looks like a lot of delay. Couldn't it be accommodated in 7.x atleast, and possibly 6.x (I might sound greedy here, but ExtJs really makes you so)!!!
#3
6.x is the stable version, no change can possibly get in. 7.x is frozen, changes could get in if they are limited in scope and well justified. Given that we don't know the amount of changes required here, or if any change is necessary at all, the correct target version number is indeed 8.x.
#4
Well, I tried tweaking the classes in system.css, and some changes made the majority of ExtJs components render correctly. However, it was still not perfect, and required further tweaking which I dumped because not many people would like to fiddle around with the core files.
I have made this request at ExtJs forums also, and would now hope, they turn up something much before Druapl 8.x.
#5
You could post an initial patch, so we know what needs to be done.
#6
I would be keen on seeing a patch for this. I'm looking at ExtJS 4 which has only recently been released. I'll eventually post a patch against Drupal 6.x (we're tied to 6.x for the time being) if none is forthcoming (I'm guessing this won't be very useful for any changes to Drupal 8, but perhaps it will make someone's life easier).
#7
Have you had a chance to create a patch for this. I'm also working with Drupal 6.x. Please share it when you get a chance.
Thanks!
