This is precisely the problem with conditional comments: You don't know
in advance if any given bug will be fixed in IE8, so you can't know
which conditional you will need.

If you get it wrong, and the bug fix is still needed in IE8 (or is not
needed in 7.5 !), then you will have to change all your CCs. It doesn't
future-proof your code any more than a well chosen CSS hack will, and
you will have many more pages to fix.

At least you will know where to look, instead of trying to work out
which combination of backslashes and asterisks fixed the particular
issue for which version.
