Please don't. Browsers differ *heavily* and there is no way to make them 
behave by using stylesheets. In fact, I found that it makes things worse.

IIRC, setting font-family:monospace will cause a really large and ugly font 
to be chosen on Windoze. This is just an example, more cross-browser 
horrors arise when you start to specify the font-size as well.

Safari's frame (mis)behavior doesn't make it a good choice for working in
the ZMI anyway ;-)
