With wml::std::page, this is exactly what <head> is for, it puts its
body into the HTML header section, so you may write

  #use wml::std::page
  #use wml::std::info
  <page>
  <head>
  <meta http-equiv="content-style-type" content="text/css">
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="$(STYLESHEETS)/screen.css">
  <info style=meta>
  </head>

I added a note in WML 2.0 about the <title> and <head> tags defined in
wml::std::page.
