    This module applies the [global reset](/docs/reference/compass/reset/utilities/#mixin-global-reset)
    to your stylesheet by simply importing it.
    
    **Note:** This module will place styles into your stylesheet by importing it. This
    is not the standard behavior of a compass module but it optimizes the common use case.
    If you want to control the reset, please use the mixins defined in the [reset
    utilities module](/docs/reference/compass/reset/utilities/)
