I've been trying for over a year to get the bad CSS styles changed,
including this one, in the WordPress Codex. Matt Thomas of Automattic has
the access to change the CSS, and has been given the styles and
recommendations several times. We're still waiting.

Hopefully, this will be cleaned up now that WordPress 2.7 has been released.
