That's generally frowned upon since it requires browser-sniffing (which is
bad).
"Hacking" doesn't always have a negative connotation. Hacks to handle
browser-specific exceptions are well-known and well-documented, and
generally add only a few bytes to a stylesheet. The CSS wiki also points to
(sometimes tricky) ways to avoid browser-specific CSS hacks.
