what background images? no no...the smaller div will show LESS of the background (overflow:hidden), you can align it center, top/bottom left or right.
google "sliding door technique"

the font thing is in the works i believe; it would be a boon for internet typography because right now we're stuck with limited options. ive seen something like that at work in myfonts.com-- you type the sample text and it gets displayed in all the fonts. i think they do it by generating images though. still, brilliant.
i like verdana but a well-sized and properly spaced georgia is great for reading long texts like newspaper articles. check out the washington post & the new york times.
the corner radius is great too, could have 4 variables for all 4 corners like:
div { cradius: 25px 50px 25px 25px }
dude you should send your idea to the w3c
