I was specifically referring to cases where UA's are different in the application of default because Appendix D is informative and where that difference interferes with the verification of the test. In that case I think there are very few cases that meet both of those conditions.

If you need to create a test that requires that the default setting is consistent across UA's then you have to apply the same default styles or stylesheet. I think it would be appropriate to require that the default that is applied is from the default stylesheet and to mark the case as requiring a default style from appendix D.
