Hello,

I've always used body {font-size: .625em;} as a way to manage more easily the 
font-size and I was wondering if using:

html    {
font-size: .625em;
}

body    {
font-size: 1.4em;
}

will be a better solution, are there any known quirks for defining font-size on 
the html element?

  Why not: body { font-size: 100%; } ?

  That way you will use the size that the user prefers rather than one
  that is probably too small to read comfortably (87.5% of the
  viewer's comfortable size).
