I'm going to disagree with you there because there's no such thing as 
"one size fits all" when it comes to browser usage.

In a corporate environment where users have no say in what browser they 
use, you will often find that IE6 represents more than 5% of the user 
base. Looking at the stats for the company I work for, it's about 6% 
(OK, that's not much more than 5%, but....)

As for mobile web, we made the decision not to support that 
specifically, mainly because browsers on mobile devices are getting 
better and better and acquiring capabilities closer to those of standard 
desktop browsers. Mobile screen resolution is increasing with time and 
no longer really requires anything specially designed for devices with 
little screen real estate.
