>>Everything changes as soon as I add a list-style-image, though: where
IE and Opera abut the image right beside the li content,  Firefox and
Safari separate >>the two by 10 pixels.  Is this normal browser
behaviour?  Is there anything one can do to offset it, besides
specifying a compromise distance?

Thanks, David -- that's exactly it!  As a matter of fact, I had finally 
stumbled on the cause of the problem (that its impossible to control 
list-style-image placement, because each browser does it differently) in Eric 
Meyers' CSS book, and the solution (the same solution that you've presented), 
in Andy Budd's CSS Mastery, just a few minutes prior to receiving your kind 
reply.  Oh, the esoterica of CSS!
