I've noticed this as well. The best designer I ever worked with was obviously great at design, but also great at css, she rocked! I've seen this more than once, but would estimate less than 10% of designers I've worked with actually took the time to learn css.

I think more designers should learn css, and more engineers should learn at least some basics of design. Then everyone could communicate better and get more done faster.
