I disagree.  I think that if you set the foreground, you must set the
background.  Otherwise, what do you do about people whose default
backgrounds clash with (or match) one of the foreground colors.

I'm sorry, but this is my pet peeve about web pages also -- people think
that they know better what foreground colors I want for links, etc., and
don't take into account that I have a black background rather than a
light grey.
