> Anyone have any insight on why the specs don't provide such a capability?

Insight? No. But, to me common sense dictates that if you don't want an item
styled, then you don't style it to begin with.

Now in this case someone is asking for a "default" style, however my gut
reaction is that they don't truly comprehend that "default" varies based on
browser and user settings (as Jukka pointed out). 

My "guess" is that if you styled a button based on the "default" style OF
THEIR BROWSER they would be satisfied. I find it hard to believe that one
user/manager/whomever would actually test the button on multiple browsers
and platforms in a side-to-side comparison with an <input type="button" />
that is in a bare XHTML page.
