Specifically  ,i want to change the defult value of some element in user agent stylesheet,such as background color.

Isn't the point of the user agent stylesheet to be specified by the
user himself and have the highest precedence?

By definition, there should not be any way to programmatically change
or override the user agent stylesheet, correct?

Should you not be able to do that by adding !important to your style declarations?

As a rough guess: do you want to change the yellow background color of auto-filled input elements? If so, you can star the following issue to stay informed:

The user agent stylesheet only sets default values which can almost always be overridden by author or user-specific stylesheets, so all other ways of declaring style rules take precedence. The majority of Chromium's user agent stylesheet can be seen here:
