It should not, though it depends on where you store your css and how you 
define it. Css uses precedence rules.

First a more detailed css specification takes precedence over a less detailed 
one. So

button
{
   font: xyz;
}

will always take precedence over

*
{
   font: xyz;
}

Because the first is more detailed.

For equally important specifications the file in which the snippet is defined 
will define the precedence. From lowest precedence to highest:

- Chosen gtk theme (Adwaita by default)
- Gtk level css overrides (in GTK_CONFIG_DIR/gtk.css) 
- GnuCash built-in colors
- User level css overrides (in GNC_CONFIG_DIR/gtk-3.0.css)

So if you want to override a gnucash built-in color, you should be able to do 
so in the User level css override, but you should take care to make your css 
definitions sufficiently detailed so they become at least equally important as 
the internally defined ones.
