I actually include a main CSS file, a lt-ie7.css and lte-ie7.css file in every theme I release. I don't always use them, but they're there if I need theme (or if a user needs them when customizing). It's just a "just in case" tip :-) You guys are absolutely right, most problems can be fixed just tweaking and fixing the CSS, but there are very rare cases where this might be the most economical/simple method to getting things working correctly.

Including additional stylesheets and browser specifics at that (sucks to update) shouldn't be done unless you really need it. And yeah, Safari is nice nowadays, although their textarea width handling is a possible problem for WP theme developers.

Safari and others usually behave themselves. Very good idea but from my experiences the only real browser you need to provide an alternative for is IE6. Safari and others usually behave themselves.
