I agree - this is exactly how I develop. Get it right in Firefox first, then make corrections for other browsers where necessary.

For IE6 I am not afraid to used underscored classes in my stylesheet, since this is the quickest and simplest way to make corrections for it. Purists insist on importing stylesheets, however IMO this is unnecessary overkill with no gain whatsoever other than more development time.

My only qualms with Firefox are its massive memory leaks.
