I take it, therefore, that none of your sites use style sheets at all
(unnecessary), they all use a serif font for body content(easier to read
long para's when in serifs) and that images are only used for
visualization aids?
Very little of what we do is determined by necessity, otherwise we would
still all be farmers. The situation I had where I wanted to control
column heights was when designing a fluid layout with image based
borders and corners. The only way that I could do it (because of this
problem) was to make one border non-image based (ie a 1px border).

There is one browser with issues, not the specs.
Which browser can correctly render the following:
3 columns, no height defined and a background color different from
that of the body
in column 1 goes a 1000px high image
in column 2 goes a 750px high image
in column 3 goes a 500px high image
the end result should be that all three columns are the same height
in other words:
below the image in column 1, no background color shows
below the image in column 2, 250px of background color shows
below the image in column 3, 500px of background color shows
Please send us all an example of a site where this was necessary.
As usual designers want "bells and whistles" without any necessity.
When I find a reason to actually use equal height columns, I'll let
you all know.
