Yes, that is the question we are now grappling with (assuming we agree that it is a desirable goal - that seems so, although there hasn't been any statement from the chairs yet). In terms of looking at CSS-capable browsers it is fairly straightforward - we can write stylesheets that will do the job. For browsers that are not using CSS I think the best options are fast becoming the use of proxy-based systems, such as that available for tablin, although getting people to upgrade browsers (and authoring tools for that matter) is the ideal solution, if not something that will happen - but that is really a whole issue on its own, that of "baseline capabilities".
