Note that spreadsheat have content aware formatting, so it is an interesting topic.

To the cell based styling; your example gives one fixed cell a certain style in the CSS, but that is not a frequent scenario since it basically is hard coded. This technique can be used for alternating row or column colors, but not much else. What happens is that in the code a certain cell is assigned a CSS class, like Tadashi said: addStyleToCell(row, col) (or addStyleToRow). If all is as it should be, the TableView already should use this technique to visualize the selected row/column/cell.

Charts usually do not have much dynamic in the vizualisation, they are statically styled.
