I've noticed this in a few cases. 

Aqua has a crappy implementation of
{button}.  If you use {input type="button"} you get Aqua, and if you use {button}
you get some ugly button. 

Plus, if the stylesheet specifies a style for
the button, such as a background-color or even text styling, the button reverts
to a different button. 

I see this all the time, even in Safari, especially
in sites like Gmail that use buttons instead of input type="button".  You
guys know what I'm talking about?
