To make what I mean clearer, the rule would be different from the
rules in CSS already, in that they would set limits on the CSS rules.
e.g. setting a minimum of 12pt for someone who can't read text below
that size (as 12pt gets interpreted by their browser/OS/monitor
combination, before we get into that argument again :) it would have
no effect on anything above that, but would turn font-size: 8pt; into
font-size: 12pt;
