Uhm, maybe my experience in web applications hasn't taught me much, but  
AFAIK that's not how browsers work. Instead of having a "default" font  
value, browsers allow scaling all fonts (or, alternatively, all content  
including images and plugins) by a user-set coefficient. I suppose you  
could edit the default browser stylesheet to set a "default" font size,  
but that would cause inconsistent behavior at best (and will probably  
break the layout on some websites as well).
