Hi Paolo, you're quite right about the amount of work needed to spot and properly resolve such css collisions. There are quite a few left too... I'm working on several projects using Bootstrap and dev web2py, so I needed a tool to let me anticipate possible problems.
I made a simple plugin out of it, "Bootstrap Plugin", here is a short description and the download<https://groups.google.com/d/topic/web2py-developers/Whjj6CQrUAc/discussion>, perhaps it'll be useful to you or anyone else.
