Oh, sorry.  I don't know why I got the impression that you were using
the HTML stylesheet.  In that case, you're definitely in the right place.
I suggest something like this:

(define ($process-cell-pcdata-contents$ entry colnum)
  (let ((font-name (if (have-ancestor? "THEAD" entry)
		       %title-font-family%
		       %body-font-family%))
	(weight    (if (have-ancestor? "THEAD" entry)
		       'bold
		       'medium))
	(fontsize  ($pi-font-size$)
        (fontcolor ($pi-font-color$)
	(align     (cell-align entry colnum)))
    (make paragraph
      font-family-name: font-name
      font-weight: weight
      quadding: align
      font-size: (if fontsize fontsize (inherited-font-size))
      color: (if fontcolor fontcolor (inherited-font-color))
      (process-node-list (children entry)))))

You'll have to copy the PI functions out of the HTML stylesheet into
your customization layer.  And for color, note that you'll have to 
predefine a bunch of colors using DSSSL color spaces and make sure
you return the right thing.

Give a yell if you get stuck...
