CSS1 decls for the FONT tag itself would first be honored, then the attributes. I treat attributes in essentially the same fashion as a STYLE attribute. So my view is that indeed the inline attributes of the FONT should override the parent. For my own implementation it also means that the style object associated with FONT and any children's style object inheriting cannot be cached. Ah well.
