For the first half of that (resetting the browser defaults) I use Yahoos reset.css (http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/reset/), which works a charm.

Yeah, I have used that before too. It does a great job of removing the browser defaults.

What I dislike, is that it forces me to have to start from scratch (reset.css scratch) in order to make a project at all readable/usable.

Though it means adding a bit more code to each page, YUI has this Base CSS component that is meant to rebuild some of the native formatting Reset CSS removes: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/base/

I remember coming across this in the past. This is very similar to what I want to find, only.. I want to push the "Base" much further.

YUI is on GitHub. I'm sure they'd love any help & suggestions to their Base component. http://github.com/yui/yui3
