Thank you both for the explanations. I think I have a much better idea why this behavior is necessary as the default. And I have a better idea on how to handle it. I must say though, that Thierry's article reintroduced me to the "hell in a can of worms" known as cross-browser compatibility. Periodically I make resolutions (of the New Year's variety) to be more cross-browser compatible. Then I fall into blissful sleep forgetting about everything other than Firefox and IE7+. Now at least I have another resource when making fresh attempts to handle those other browsers properly. Thanks for the help. Much appreciated.
