Only for hacks and browser-specific properties. This is not a big deal. The same problem exists anyway for things like IE's conditional comments, or any kind of user-agent selectivity on the server, or indeed any other type of hack or browser-specific feature.

But obviously it's SO much better with the current situation that it works in no browsers at all!

Are you seriously more worried about browser-specific CSS features, which are probably expected to degrade gracefully anyway, than, oh I don't know, background-image!?

And you'd STILL need to rewrite the URLs. Come on, give it half a thimble of thought.
