Why do you state it is a bad decision of browser makers? I thought it was 
included as a Cascading feature, to override the normal CSS if needed. I 
would rather use classes or something, but sometimes for one thing, it 
seems more work than needed, and hence using a font in a few areas to 
override the CSS sheet seems sometimes appropriate.

curious.
