Is the default importmap method unrealistic in the most popular real world use cases?
You can't use additional CSS packages (like Flowbite) with the official tailwindcss-rails gem. According to this answered issue, you should either give up importmap and use a bundler, or use a CSS file from CDN - which is not ideal (unnecessary classes won't be purged this way).

User notifications with Rails, Noticed, and Hotwire

Rails 7 Tailwind Scaffold Question
When you generate an app with rails new --css=tailwind without a JS option, you get the tailwindcss-rails gem which includes the new scaffold generators. When you pass in a JavaScript option as well, you get Tailwind installed via cssbundling-rails, which does not include built-in generators since it offers more than just Tailwind as an option.

New Rails project - help me choose JS + CSS bundling option.
Maybe https://github.com/rails/cssbundling-rails does what you want? For CSS only, afaik it's perfectly fine to mix different approaches for CSS and JS within one Rails app, so you could still use importmaps for JS.
