Super Form Reset

A couple of things to watch out for:

- IE8: If a text input doesn't have padding on all sides or none the text won't be centered.
- The default border sizes on text inputs in all UAs seem to be slightly different. You're better off using custom borders.
- You NEED to set the font-size and family on all form elements
- Search inputs need to have their appearance reset and the box-sizing set to content-box to match other UAs
- You can style the upload button in webkit using ::-webkit-file-upload-button
- ::-webkit-file-upload-button selectors can't be used in the same selector as normal ones. FF and IE freak out.
- IE: You don't need to fake inline-block with labels and form controls in IE. They function as inline-block.
- By turning off ::-webkit-search-decoration, it removes the extra whitespace on the left on search inputs
