You are far too optimistic.
(and even IE has a glitch mode: the very same document can be rendered
with either the standard html+css or the old html engine... all
triggered by some fancy first line... in doubt, it revert to old engine!)

If you keep feature to minimum, you have hope... but stay away of round
corner, shadows and other "new" things. I guess that even table is a
doomed tag. (and do not ask for fancy bullet in any list...)

And firefox might display an xml document when served by a server, but
not as a file:// (and if the xlt are not on the same server, it won't
allow it!)

And YMMV with each subversion of each browser!
