everything right, so long as you use a suitable doctype to get it into
standards-based rendering mode. One stylesheet will fit all.
The only issues I know of where you can't do this are for the default
treatment of lists (just set everything (margin & padding) explicitly
for both). Also IE still have some font-sizing issues.

That's _MUCH_ worse.
