I'll have to claim the credit for that one. :)

Now that you mention it, I do want to hassle with the type, but it's
just so damn difficult to have access to the tools, and the possible
problems are so many. (line-height, color & bg, family, size, weight..)
I guess a combination of persistent site-wide user stylesheets, a
bookmarklet or moz bar to show element's id, and a quick access to edit
your user stylesheet would do it.
(presets and simplified style editing tools would be helpful for the
non-css-inclined)
Everyone coding to eric's recommendation of putting the site domain as
the body id would help too.
I guess since it'll never be done by /everyone/, a nice adition to css3
for user stylesheets would be a domain or url selector.
I guess Opera's handling of user stylesheets is the least worse. Opera
has a real quick access to activating users stylesheets. It has presets.
That's good. But it has none to edit those stylesheets, and they are not
persistent.
