Here we go again: overly specific CSS

[Antechinus]

I don't think you need to worry too much. IE8's CSS2.1 support is excellent, and the CSS3 stuffz in 2.1 is (AFAICT) for things that won't blow the forum to pieces if they're dropped. Things like zebra striping or gradients or rounded corners aren't that big a deal for a rapidly dying browser. The gui will still work and still look reasonable.
