Ah, font-size/line-height.

I was reading that selector string wrong, I must have check it about 5 
times. There is indeed padding. Thank you Philippe.

They don't show defaults for anchors on the Gecko and WebKit defaults 
styles sheets. I would like to add such defaults to this table.

I would say that we have.

a {
   text-decoration: underline;
   color:blue;
   padding:3px 0;
   line-height:1em;
}

Never thought about inline elements.
