I totally agree. There's no reason that we should have more than ONE version of CSS given that we have a governing body that has written the standard. Browser manufacturers should be participating in this body, not working against it.

I want a common set of selectors that will work predictably (and in the same way) in every browser, that will cover 98% of what you'd need to do CSS wise. Rewriting entire sites for cross browser compatibility is getting old, and honestly it's a waste of time.
