Do you think that the following would be a wise addition to a CSS reset?

* {
    color: inherit;
    font: inherit;
}​

  • ie7 doesn't support inherit property, so if your target audience are still using that 7, might not be good idea – Andreas Wong Apr 24 '12 at 00:15

    I would hesitate to inherit every single font property on every single element. If you specify a font size, for example, things may get unwieldy depending on the sizes involved. Also, `color` is inherited by default on most elements already (the current spec says `currentColor` is used, but one of its computed values is the inherited color anyway), so it's unnecessary to specify it for every element. – BoltClock Apr 24 '12 at 00:16
