Running 2.10.0-0-g2b2a7c71 (Docker). space-style blocks appear to have zero effect on rendering — confirmed the block is recognized correctly (shows the "space-style" label in the editor gutter), but even body { background: red !important; } produces no visible change anywhere in the app after a full reload + hard refresh + browser restart. Tried on multiple pages. Anyone else seeing this on recent Docker builds?

Just checked this one and it does apply (go check in the browser inspector), but you don't see the result because the body background is 100% overlayed with other DOM elements, tried this and it works fine for me:
````auto
```space-style
#sb-root { background: red !important; }
```
````
(`System: Reload` after putting this somehere)
For reports: it would be helpful to understand if you've detected a regression, that is: if this worked before in a previous version and stopped or it's the first time you're trying.
