Warning: Multiple backgrounds can lead to LOTS of waste in the CSS (defining gradients over and over) if you aren’t using sprites for those icons (and setting all of them at once).
Nope, I don't think there are any (the CSS3 workarounds can be tricky with custom padding/margin). Google consistently uses nested elements and I think for the next few years that's the only solution that's going to work well cross-browser.

Nice catch. Know of an easy workaround to this?
You can use multiple backgrounds in CSS3: http://snook.ca/archives/html_and_css/multiple-bg-css-gradie...
Lots of details here and some catches to look out for (mostly browser support).
