Actually, that formulation could well break something you don't want
broken. Note that .about.home will break in IE/Win, which will apply
the rule to everything with the "home" class, completely ignoring the
"about" class. However, modern browsers will get it correct, and
only apply the rule to elements with both classes. Zoe's method will
apply the rule to any element with *either* class in all
browsers. That is probably not what you want.
FWIW, support for multiple class selectors is supposedly on the fix
list for IE7.
